Serious games types
Our serious games focus primarily on multiplayer games of the following types:
1- Knowledge / learning games: Games requiring the user to solve puzzles, tests or quizzes but including graphic and gameplay elements inspired from videogames (avatars, multiplayer challenge …)
2- Optimization games: Game requiring the user to solve an analytical problem using optimization techniques, such as finding the optimal pricing point for a virtual product, optimizing a virtual manufacturing production line … These games typically have a linear gameplay and include a single or very limited number of environments
3- Strategy games: Games requiring creativity and strategic skills and inspired from Real Time Strategy or Turn Based strategy videogames. They typically include “build and manage” type games, such as building a virtual city and continuously managing the budget to invest in new sources of energy while minimizing carbon emissions
4- Simulation games
These games put the player(s) in a virtual environment simulating real-life situations. They often have a non-linear gameplay and involve multiple environments. They are by nature more immersive than the first three games and can involve more than one concept
4.1- Analytical simulation games: Games where the player has to face a number of sequential analytical decisions that will decide his evolution through the gameplay. Examples include playing the role of a new manager that will have to go through all the decisions of creating a successful new company. They are typically inspired from entertainment adventure games
4.2- Behavioral simulation games: Games training players on emotional and behavioral skills, such as recruiting, giving feedback or dealing with an angry customer
