In this brisk 11-minute talk at CLS, Michael Douma from IDEA Games delves into the innovative and potentially inclusive realm of word meaning games, contrasting them with traditional spelling-focused games. He emphasizes the significance of cultural diversity in game topics, showcasing some real quandaries and instances where they misspoke (in beta). Through these examples, and background on vocabulary diversity, he invites you to explore the expansive and engaging future of this game genre. The talk challenges you to reflect on conventional game design paradigms and inspires a dialogue on how emerging technology can foster inclusivity and creativity in the gaming world.
