Hi -- I'm new hear. Short introduction: I work in the field of higher education and on a project on gamification. Also, I hope to find here some help. Currently I'm about to develop a concept to gamify a lecture. I do have some ideas, however, I struggle in one point: I'd like to have a leaderboard to reflect the points the students have gained. Surely I could create an excel worksheet for that, however I thought that there might be an online solution for that? Yet I can't find such a thing…

Greetings Gameful team!  

I have two video game ideas that I want to see turn into a reality, ideally with the help and vision of Jane McGonigal.  Before I write her though, I want to streamline my message as much as possible.  

Both ideas are aimed at solving a large numbers of problems I have experienced in the classroom as a teacher, and once upon a time, a student.  

I am hoping the great minds on this forum could…

I am an IT student, involved in a start up acceleration program in Los Angeles for an educational videogame on ocean pollution (cons and remedies)

Peace everyone,

Glad to be here and I'm psyched to connect with other gameful developers. I am working on Intergalactic Multiversity for Magic & Wonder - The Game as my most gameful project at present (see forum at IMMWE.org). It is meant as a gameful solution to all of the crises of the present, grounded in the creation of autonomous and creative knowledge systems as a primary tool of liberation, creation and regeneration of non-oppressive societies. I would love to connect with…

Can you help? I'm hunting for a post I did in Gameful a few years ago, describing concepts for an RPG that took players through the challenges of being a successful "nonviolent" protestor. Lots of action possible, with drama playing out and the challenge being to avoid fighting back even when hit, even when someone you care for is hit. Lots of details - but now I can't seem to find it :-(

Sadly, I don't seem to have the original text I posted saved somewhere else.

Here's email…

I'll admit that I am a bit of a late joiner to the Mass Effect trilogy, especially since the first game was released in 2007, and the third was released in 2012. But I am sold, and am a huge fan of the game. I actually enjoyed the game so much, that I feel that it can be used as a therapeutic intervention.



If you Google Mass Effect Counselling, or Mass Effect Therapy you will find this in game clip. But I do believe Mass…

Well, it's finally that time. After about a year of soft development, the AOC (Architects of Creation) are off the ground and running with our first batch of Alpha-testers jumping right in. We have some obvious front-runners, and some laggers behind, but that's okay, because we need each and every type of individual playing to learn more about the game itself, and the way it should be played.

Maybe you don't know what the AOC is. That's unfortunate for you, but…

Hello Gameful world, I'm new here and just testing the waters with this post. Basically I'm not really sure what I want to do, but I would love to get into design. Pretty much looking for recommendations as to where to start. In High school I took a game development class and worked with game maker and GMI. After that I went to some community collage in the IT field, but that didn't really work out because of a personal epidemic. Recently I've been working on web design and Gamification,…

Hey All!

I have a question about how gamification and workification relate to one another.  I'm trying to come up with some thoughts on the missing quadrant below.  Its pretty important to the project I'm working on as its the premise of a whole series of blog posts I'm working on.

If any of you have any ideas I'd greatly appreciate it.

This is the original post from: …
