Abstract
Movers and Shakers is a tablet-based serious game that explores how subversive game design can foster meaningful conversational conflict beyond outside the game’s digital screens. This two-player strategy puzzle was developed at the Singapore-MIT GAMBIT Game Lab and is used as a research tool to explore novel challenges in multiplayer serious games. The project provides insights into the affordances and challenges of mobile serious games for co-located players.
