Top ten social purpose games
I have decided to publish here a top ten games that has a social purpose only , these kind of games also called Jocuri noi.
Game designer Jane McGonigal firmly believes that video games are not just about mashing buttons and getting to the next level. This lady talks in a big international conference about games as a treatment for depression and other clinical problems that humans can have.
She also specified that free online games can help people heal from injuries and get better wellness in almost any disease.
In her classic TEDTalk “Gaming can make a better world” McGonigal pointed out that online games like World of Warcraft inspire people to think like heroes. But are there other games out there like SuperBetter, which are created for a specific social good? After the jump, many more examples.
So let's see some of these games that Jane consider to have a clinical effect on their players.
