So I keep digging and getting more and more excited about this concept of Gamification. What I have found interesting is this is something I have been thinking about pretty much all of my life. It is interesting to see that most of what I have found is primarily dominated by video games… especially World of Warcraft. I really would like to find some information on board game based research or efforts. For example, board games are huge in Germany. It is threaded in their family fabric, whereby families will go together to select a board game that they will play together after dinner and homework. What a concept? The enhancement of family and values along with the increase in strategic and tactical thought along with any value the game might add.
Just a thought!
