We will present the newest theories on Retention in games, and ways to measure and calculate it. We will also show examples of systemic gameplay in Might&Magic Heroes Online (MMHO), and how this ties into retention. Trying to keep players coming back for more is the most important and difficult setup in a game. After this talk, the audience will be better equipped to see how to measure retention and distinguish a well-running game from a badly running one, as well as get an overview on different gameplay techniques to retain players.
