Game Description
Professional Applications
Games can provide more than just silliness and entertainment. Games can be a highly-engaging and unique way to teach and motivate. Megagames in particular are very valuable and unique experience, and as such they have a lot to teach us, especially about how complicated resolving crises and other large scale challenges can be.
​
Large scale games like this can be designed for businesses and other organisations, with the aim of teaching valuable lessons about:
-
Information management
-
Resource management
-
Efficient communication
-
Teamwork, management and delegation skills
...and much more
Where a lecture or a book can only tell you information, a game can put you in the heart of the problem, and allows you to learn by working through the issues yourself - allowing you to experience the challenge and explore your own solutions. It's also an experience that many find more enjoyable and engaging than a normal presentation or lecture.
Smaller games are also available for as few as half a dozen people, whilst still carrying over the core principles of the larger games. If you're interested in a new experience with valuable learning potential, contact us at contact@swmegagames.co.uk and we'll be happy to discuss the type of package that's right for you.
