What does it mean to play together, to play with other people? Game designer and co-founder of Come Out & Play Nick Fortugno discusses how play, systems, and agency can help build communities and reimagine cities. By looking at ways game systems are used in examples from icebreaking to street games to participatory democracy, this talk explores how concepts such as exploration, fairness, and strategic thinking can make everyone more engaged in their environment and help them to imagine new ways to work and play together.
