Getting serious

For those of you who had your interest piqued by the posts about serious games over the past couple of weeks, and if you're going to be in the London area on Monday, there's a "Serious Games Mixer" happening at d.café @ the DANA CENTRE in South Kennsington.

This event celebrates these innovations by showcasing some of the most interesting new examples of 'serious games' from the UK, the US and beyond in an informal and network-friendly setting. The event will bring together top UK games developers, educationalists, cultural heritage experts, public information and museum curators; government departments, ngo's, publishers, financiers and many others.



They're serious. Quite seriously. I betcha some of the government departments present will be military.

Head over there if you want to see how games can make a difference beyond entertainment.
