GAME DESIGN

Designing and developing games and gamification for client and Co-CREATE ImpACT projects

ideation and product design are in our dna

With a degree in Product Design Engineering and many years hands-on experience in design, development and sourcing of over 500 products, including toys and games, creating new games and gamification approaches comes naturally and is something we really enjoy doing.

Whenever there is a spare moment, the creative juices get flowing and fresh ideas evolve, the challenge is then to find the time to nourish these seeds to grow and become new Co-CREATE ImpACT offers.

E4Citizens - Serious Game

Coached the Energy Living Lab Association team, at HES-SO in Switzerland, to create a serious game.

The result, E4Citizens, is a faciltiated table top game which helps to engage and empower actors of the energy transition.

The game invites participants to discover the city of Energypolis and it’s urban infrastructure. Travelling around Energypolis, players have the opportunity to generate and propose ideas by combining the Action + Actor + Domain cards.

E4Citizens is a team game and encourages collaboration and co-design of solutions to energy issues.

sustainability escape game

Escape games are challenging…

so is building a better world!

An impactful escape game that increases awareness and knowledge of sustainability, by providing an immersive play-based experience that unites teams around exploring what sustainability really means. Bringing escape game methodology onsite for unique hands-on sustainability training. Teams have 60 minutes to collaborate and communicate effectively as they think out-of-the-box to solve puzzles and figure out how to rethink systems, re-evaluate the way we do business and reconsider the way we live.

The skills and mindset needed to be successful in an escape game are the same ones we need to change the world.

We are developing an escape game as a facilitated immersive learning and team building experience for organisations who want to empower their employees to believe it is possible to have a positive triple bottom line.

Work together

For a faster escape, teams need to use everyone’s unique viewpoint, skills and experiences.

Solution orientated

Thinking out of the box, combining logical and creative problem solving skills is required to “escape”.

Communication is key

In an escape room situation, teams are forced to share and communicate effectively together.

Focus

Step away from the day to day job to concentrate on this important and urgent challenge.

After people all over the world experiencing restrictions due to the COVID-19 pandemic we have taken the position that realistically it is going to be a while before people will voluntarily choose to be locked up for fun! And therefore we have put our Escape Game development on hold.
