They started with the project Cape Breeze, designed to encourage children with cystic fibrosis to do their daily physiotherapy routines, and in the last few years have expanded into other areas of health care and education.

In this episode, we explore:

  • Creating games for policy makers to explore scenarios of how town planning can influence eating habits, leading to real-world changes in policy and town design
  • Working backwards from the problem, creating game mechanics through each step required for each goal.... so every player can solve the core problem that inspired the game design
  • The importance of collaboration, to enable dynamic game player, resulting in all players at all levels being able to play on a level playing field.... where creating communities through games maximises motivation and regular game player, leading to real-world and real-life impact.
