Episode 97 – The Laws of Online World Design

Michael and Michael are back this week to talk about how the rules of game design from Raph Koster could be used in order to improve the engagement factor of serious games within a business setting. Are you an explorer, a quester, or a crafter? Do you like to uncover new things? Do you like to understand and follow processes? Do you like to create things? Is this just logical market segmentation, or can you progress a gamificiation platform that progresses from the explorer to the quester to the crafter? Michael R. mentions the hackathon he is working on and how he discovered a new gamification service being made available on the IBM Bluemix platform.

The Michael’s are suggesting that we are planning a local board game night in the Research Triangle Park area
