Many designers, policy makers, teachers, and other practitioners are beginning to understand the usefulness of using digital games beyond entertainment. Games have been developed for teaching, recruiting and to collect data to improve search engines. This book examines the fundamentals of designing any game with a serious purpose and provides a way of thinking on how to design one successfully. The reader will be introduced to a design philosophy called “Triadic Game Design.”; a theory that all games involve three worlds: the worlds of Reality, Meaning, and Play. Each world is affiliated with aspects. A balance needs to be found within and between the three worlds. Such a balance is difficult to achieve, during the design many tensions will arise, forcing designers to make trade-offs. To deal with these tensions and to ensure that the right decisions are made to create a harmonic game, a frame of reference is needed. This is what Triadic Game Design offers.

Along with the rise of digital games over the past decades came an increased interest for using games for other purposes than entertainment. Although a few successes are known, much research seems to suggest little evidence for games' advantages. Existing literature claims that more studies are needed that investigate the effective design and use of games and especially studies that are comprehensive, rigorous, and innovative. To contribute to this emerging field, the author investigated the case of Levee Patroller. The target audience of the game, levee patrollers, are considered the "eyes and ears" of the Dutch water authorities. They inspect levees and report any risks they encounter. Similarly, in the game players have to find all virtual failures in a region and report these. If they do not find the failures in time or report them incorrectly, it could result in a levee breach that floods the whole virtual region.

In today’s digital society, organizations must utilize technology in order to engage their audiences. Innovative game-like experiences are an increasingly popular way for businesses to interact with their customers; however, correctly implementing this technology can be a difficult task. To ensure businesses have the appropriate information available to successfully utilize gamification in their daily activities, further study on the best practices and strategies for implementation is required. The Handbook of Research on Gamification Dynamics and User Experience Design considers the importance of gamification in the context of organizations’ improvements and seeks to investigate game design from the experience of the user by providing relevant academic work, empirical research findings, and an overview of the field of study. Covering topics such as digital ecosystems, distance learning, and security awareness, this major reference work is ideal for policymakers, technology developers, managers, government officials, researchers, scholars, academicians, practitioners, instructors, and students.

Motor play, being a dynamic and participatory activity, provides an ideal platform to address relevant topics such as health and well-being, inclusion and equity, environmental respect, and the promotion of active and healthy lifestyles. By incorporating a multidisciplinary approach, it enriches the educational experience by relating physical education concepts to other areas of knowledge such as social sciences, natural sciences, and personal and social development. The contributions of motor play to the 2030 agenda in physical education go beyond simple physical exercise, serving as a vehicle to shape citizens committed to sustainability and global well-being, while developing fundamental physical, emotional, and social skills for life. Promoting Sustainable Development Goals in Physical Education: The Role of Motor Games focuses on integrating motor play as a fundamental tool in physical education to promote the sustainable development goals established in the 2030 agenda. The aim is not only to develop motor and physical skills but also to foster values and practices that contribute to a more sustainable and equitable future. Covering topics such as motor conflict, socio-emotional well-being, and student motivation, this book is an excellent resource for educators, school administrators, healthcare professionals, environmentalists, professionals, researchers, scholars, academicians, and more.
