'Serious games' is a term used to describe games that have a purpose beyond entertainment. Each game should include educational components to allow the player to learn as they interact with the game. Industries related to health, economics, defense, education, etc. use serious games for a variety of purposes.
Our focus is to create serious games that build skill through repetition. Repetition allows information to move from short-term to long-term memory; allowing skills to be processed at a higher level. Over time, the skill will be learned and become mastered. Currently, we are building games for college-level mathematics and computer science topics.
