Serious games

I recently wrote about the Whosegame contest, in which users are requested to create a game on a specific subject (Learning by videogames, Become an eco-citizen, Fight against isolation). 11 games have been submitted, and evaluation is ongoing. Before casting my vote, I have tried all of the games and have singled out a couple of submissions:

  • Hallo, following the overseas travel of a data packet from one mobile phone to another
  • Garbage King, with an extremely simple message about putting garbage in the right recycling basket – although other games are superior in execution and complexity, this is in my opinion the one with the best correspondance with the competition goals.
