This document discusses using online social games to raise funds for charitable causes. It notes that millions of people spend billions of dollars each year on virtual goods in casual games. Some games like Farmville have successfully raised over a million dollars for organizations supporting causes like disaster relief. However, only about 20% of players account for 80% of spending. The document proposes the idea of social games that not only provide fun gameplay but also allow players to support organizations like Greenpeace through their participation and in-game purchases. Examples of existing citizen science and journalism games are provided as models for how activism games supporting causes like forest protection could work.

Games have the potential to create social change by exposing players to difficult real-world issues and encouraging empathy. Games like Food Force that deal with humanitarian crises can educate children. Experiencing problems in games, like losing resources, teaches players about challenges others face. When games make players uncomfortable by forcing them to take certain actions or confront issues, it makes them reflect on their choices in a way that can lead to positive real-world impact. The Games for Change movement harnesses video games to engage players on issues like poverty and human rights in order to foster a more just society. However, some skepticism remains about converging social issues with gaming, and major companies have largely ignored social change games due to perceived risks of not

For the Win: What Businesses are Learning from the World of Games
This document discusses how businesses are learning from digital games. It explains how games use designed feedback loops and analytics to achieve massive growth. Games are highly motivating because they satisfy psychological needs for competence, autonomy, and relatedness. The concept of "gamification" is introduced, which is using game elements and design in non-game contexts. Gamification can motivate users by engaging them through points, rankings, challenges and other game mechanics. The document argues that gamification techniques can help drive engagement for businesses.
AnthropologyCon
This document contains excerpts from multiple sources discussing various aspects of games. It begins by introducing Anastasia Salter and her research interests in narrative games and platforms. Several excerpts discuss how game studies has focused on differences from other media but also note similarities. Other excerpts discuss how AAA games reinforce social norms, how games can make rhetorical arguments through processes, and how violence is often the default choice in many genres. The document concludes by encouraging making games.
Zynga's game plan
The document discusses the history and future of social gaming company Zynga Inc. It notes that while Zynga was very successful with games like FarmVille, generating $1 million in revenue per day at its peak, the company's stock price has fallen significantly since 2011. Currently, Zynga is focusing on accumulating cash through acquisitions while strengthening its Texas Hold'em Poker game by entering the real money gambling market. Many analysts believe Zynga's strategy positions it to potentially earn profits again in the future through new hit games, expansion into real money gambling, or an acquisition by a larger company seeking a gaming platform.

This document summarizes key findings from a presentation on diversity and growth opportunities in the global games market. It finds that the market is growing at 6.7% annually and that mobile devices like smartphones and tablets are driving growth, especially among women, families and children.

When The Consoles Die, What Comes Next?
The document discusses the decline of traditional video game consoles and the rise of new platforms like mobile and social games. It notes that the market share and sales of major console companies are shrinking while new companies focusing on free-to-play mobile and social games are seeing huge growth and audience sizes.

The first computer games go back to the 50s when a nought and crosses game was created using an EDSAC computer. An effort at MIT ten years later led to a the multiplayer Spacewar game developed in a PDP-1. Even though these games were primitive, a game industry was born with the first games available in special locations – arcades. Today’s games are produced with modest Hollywood budgets and some are selling more than box-office hits.
In this lecture we look at computer games and the gaming market. Also we cover the impact of gaming and the trends.

Games as mindbomb (by Ingo)
This document discusses the potential for Greenpeace to use video games as a communication tool. It notes that video games have become a mainstream medium, with some games selling more tickets or copies than movies. Video games are also increasingly being used by others to covertly teach agendas. The document argues that video games are uniquely able to get people to actively participate and try out scenarios, making them well-suited for Greenpeace to create "mind bomb games" that could persuasively spread their messages and mobilize people in a new way. Some example game ideas are proposed.

This document discusses monetization and distribution options for flash games through social networks. It notes that while flash games have a massive audience, they generate little revenue for creators. In contrast, some social games on networks like Facebook have found great success monetizing through virtual goods and viral distribution.

Social Gaming and Virtual Goods
The document discusses social gaming and virtual goods. It notes that social gaming apps see much higher engagement than other app categories like messaging and dating. Social context and casual games have led to the rise of social gaming. Virtual goods in games, virtual worlds, and social networks are becoming mainstream and generate billions in revenue each year. Virtual goods go beyond just digital content by being bound to platforms, having unique identities, and being tradeable. For games and platforms, virtual goods must provide added value through exclusivity, interaction, and functionality to be successful.

Social gaming: is it gambling?
This document discusses social casino games and whether they constitute gambling. It summarizes that while social casino games incorporate elements of chance like real gambling, they differ in that players do not risk anything of real-world value, can only win virtual currency to continue playing, and have no means of cashing out winnings. Though the lines are blurred, social casino games are intended for entertainment rather than the pursuit of real-world prizes through monetary risk, and are regulated differently than real-money gambling apps.

Games (r)evolution - Lessons from gaming platform past
[Inside Social Apps 2010 - San Francisco ] Hello everyone, my name is Sebastien de Halleux and what I’ll talk about over the next 30 minutes or so is about The Evolution of Games, and specifically lessons from gaming platforms past..

Ben Joffe\'s Virtual Goods in Asia at Virtual Goods Summit West
The document summarizes key trends in the digital goods and virtual economy markets in Asia. It discusses the large and growing markets in countries like South Korea, Japan, and China, driven by popular social networks, online games, and mobile platforms. These Asian companies are now expanding globally as the market potential for digital and virtual goods increases around the world.

Mobile + Social: Show us the Money
Little World Gifts offers an investment opportunity seeking £150,000 in exchange for 10% equity in the business. The company is positioned in high growth digital goods and mobile markets, turning over £2m in the first year with 50% profit. With a valuation of £2m based on first year profits, this early stage investment represents an opportunity for significant returns in dynamic, leading edge sectors.
Mobile+social: the case for games
Mobile games can leverage social interactions to increase engagement and monetization. Games are inherently social objects that connect players, and mobile is uniquely positioned to facilitate social interactions due to its personal and always-on nature. To be successful, mobile games should provide avenues for social engagement in-game, such as leaderboards, challenges between friends, and rewards that activate players' passion and turn them into fanatics who promote the game to others. This social context can then be leveraged for effective cross-promotion and monetization when done in a relevant way.
Farmville: Gaming, Target, Business, Advertising
Farmville became a phenomenon on Facebook by leveraging social aspects and encouraging viral sharing. It targeted both casual and hardcore gamers, especially women, and was also popular among kids. Farmville's business model involved microtransactions for virtual goods, which generated substantial revenue. It created new advertising opportunities and showed social games' potential on platforms like iPad. While many imitators emerged, new genres like FIFA Superstars on Facebook could match or exceed Farmville's popularity by appealing to soccer fans.
Innovation Workshop –Games and Reality
This presentation is part of a 4 hours workshop called "Innovation Workshop –Games and Reality". During the workshop students from the Recanati School of business in Tel Aviv University thought of games and startup related games ideas and "fought" against each other discovering if their idea has a chance to become the great big next hit.
I really liked some of the ideas, for example: a game you need to run in real life in order to "charge" your character in the game. A game you "scan" your real pet and play with it in a virtual world, including a virtual dog fight with real dogs . A real cart driving game you play wearing Google glass. The glass allows you to see virtual power ups or virtual avatars to enhance your driving experience (did someone say zombies)
For me the workshop was really fun. I hope the students had fun as well and I do hope some of these ideas will become actual games.
Trip Hawkins Presentation
The document discusses the rise of social games and predicts their continued growth in 2011 and beyond. It outlines why social games, virtual goods, free-to-play models, cross-platform play, interoperability, cloud-based infrastructure, and cross-regional gameplay will be important drivers of the industry. Key predictions include Facebook becoming a major game platform, the emergence of rival social platforms, exponential growth in mobile and social devices, and interoperable games gaining relevance.
