Tips for designing serious games

  • Create games that relate to your audience.

  • Think about what content you would like to teach your students first, then decide which mechanics would be more effective for that specific content. Pair more complex mechanics with information-heavy content.

  • Make sure the game clearly gets your intended objective across.

  • Don’t make the game overly educational. Have a good balance of education and fun.

  • When designing games, take into consideration the space that you will be using and the number of students that will be participating. Many times this will impact the game and adjustments will need to be made.

  • Continuously test and adjust your game to improve.
