Player Centered Design: Reframing the World through Play

Sign up or log in to save this to your schedule, view media, leave feedback and see who's attending!

Educational Games and Games for Change are powerful forces for helping people understand the world, but sometimes there’s a disconnect between the play and the topic it attempts to address. But play itself is a powerful tool for uncovering new insights about complex topics. Building on the proven methods of user-centered design thinking, Mohini and Ben will present their “player centric design” model they’ve used at Antidote Games to increase understanding in over 2 dozen countries worldwide.
