Background :A lot has been said about gamification recently

• "Gamification" as a term is

indeed opportunistic and vague. • Games have a lot to offer, and

the current form of gamification

isn't a bad place to start.

Tony Ventrice has two responses to this discussion

Issue :What Makes a Game Fun?• Raph Koster says…

Fun is the act of mastering a problem mentally.

• Jesse Schell says …

A game is a problem-solving activity, approached

with a playful attitude.

A common conclusion on the game design side : “Choice” and “Learning”

But, choices and solutions doesn't defined a game

• FarmVille and Foursquare are evidence that people are willing to call something a "game" even if the decisions are vapid and the learning is simplistic.
