   3. C. A sports simulation where players move around a field viewed from different angles.
   4. D. An interactive storybook with hand-drawn scenes.
   5. E. A matching game using flat fruit icons.

4. Resource Considerations

   1. A. 3D game art never requires animation.
   2. B. 2D game art requires more powerful graphics cards than 3D.
   3. C. 3D game art often requires more computing power for rendering models and lighting.
   4. D. 2D game art always costs more to produce than 3D.
   5. E. Both art styles always use the same software tools.

5. Recognizing Common Uses

   Which game genre typically uses 2D art to achieve a retro or classic visual appeal?

   1. A. Racing simulations
   2. B. First-person shooters
   3. C. Platformers

   5. E. Line art sketching

7. Environment Design

   What is a typical benefit of using 3D art when designing a game environment?

   1. A. The background cannot be changed.
   2. B. It allows players to view scenes from multiple angles and perspectives.
   3. C. All objects must be static and non-interactive.
   4. D. It forces the use of only black and white colors.
   5. E. It replaces text with pictures.

8. Art Workflow

   2. B. Painting with watercolors
   3. C. Sculpting models in digital space
   4. D. Arranging paper cutouts
   5. E. Inking lines by hand

9. Player Perspective

   In a top-down strategy game where all objects are seen from above and do not rotate, which art style is most commonly used?

   1. A. 3R Rendering
   2. B. 2D Art
   3. C. 4D Modeling
   4. D. 3C Canvas
   5. E. VR Imaging

10. Blending Approaches

    What does it mean when a game is described as having '2.5D' graphics?

    1. A. The game’s graphics are neither colored nor shaded.
    2. B. The art uses flat images only, without any depth illusion.
    3. C. The visuals combine 2D and 3D elements, such as 3D characters on a 2D background.
    4. D. The game is missing half of the intended images.
    5. E. It only uses hand-drawn textures.
