Games for change are often hyped as magical objects with inherent powers: the power to teach something, to change behaviors, to foster empathy, to encourage action. Starting from Molleindustria's recent projects, Paolo Pedercini expands the scope of critical gamemaking beyond the fetishized content and toward the politics of game platforms, play spaces, and gamers.
