Erik Agudelo from Play Learn Develop reviews Reality is Broken. To give you a sneak preview of what he thinks of this book, he says he ended up ‘highlighting whole pages of the book.’ Starting with ‘What is a Game?’ and working through to how games can help us to save the world, via a reference to another great book, Mitchel Resnick’s ‘Lifelong Kindergarten’, Erik’s video should whet your appetite for the work of McGonigal, and the main thesis of this book – that games can be used as ‘meaningful work’ in the face of some of the world’s most intractable problems.
Reality Is Broken is available on Amazon
