Game Thinking sounds great, but I’m building an app/platform/enterprise system. Is this only for games?
Game Thinking will improve any product experience that can be built around learning, mastery and empowerment. It works for games – and ALSO for products, apps, blogs, marketplaces, and events where the goal is long-term engagement.
This reminds me of Gamification – but I’m not hearing a lot about game mechanics. What’s the difference?
Gamification opens the door and gets people interested in the power of games. Game Thinking is the next step. You’ll learn how to bring your ideas to life like a game designer, and create Learning Loops that empower your players
Will my employer cover the cost?
If your company has a training budget, this should be covered. Participating will enhance your product design and management skills & your entire team will benefit from the tools you bring back to the company. Learn More…
Is this a good fit for me?
It depends on what kind of outcomes you’re looking for. If you want to 10X your early product design efforts, accelerate your path to product/market fit, and leverage the true underlying power of games – Gschool is for you.
