Beyond entertainment

We will analyse the reasons for the game’s relutance to tackle serious themes, by examining the playful nature of medium and other social factors. By highlighting the potential of board game for approach with serious subjects in an interactive way, the conference will introduce games examples managing to address these themes with sensitivity. We will also think to increase the board game as artistic expression, exploring it’s role in the discussion of contemporary issues.
