Sephirot the game© is a performative role-playing game, that allows you to play hypertext stories that can drastically change structure anytime. The game includes several aspects such as acting, competition, storytelling, interaction and challenges between the Players.

Collettivo Sephirot

Collettivo Sephirot

Here's the manifesto of the group we created to spread our thoughts about telling live stories.

Collettivo Sephirot

Collettivo Sephirot is a collective of artists that has the need to change the way to tell a story in a live show. Moving further and further away from an academic theatrical form, it seeks new communication layers closer to role-playing and game design.



Process

This graph shows my typical work process in Gamification, how I usually work and what is my workflow.

1

Step 1

Daily life is marked by numerous actions, often considered boring and poorly digested (payment of taxes, health prevention, maintenance), while the game is a voluntary action from which one takes pleasure. Gamification tries to involve people to experience more fun and participation in daily activities through play.

2

Step 2

Identifying the field in which you intend to apply gamification is important to understand the methodology to be employed, which changes according to the goal to be achieved. The objectives can be: loyalty, recruitment, problem solving, team working, education, training, entertainment.

3

Step 3

Applying gamification techniques requires a phase of in-depth study of the linear narration of contents, in such a way as to build an architecture that invites interaction, discovery and fun.

4

Step 4

Testing the gamification structures through virtual and concrete simulations is essential to verify the robustness and balance of the system.

5

Step 5

The system created, analog or digital, is put into practice, continuing to observe strict maintenance in the early stages, monitoring the actual potential and redirecting the elements that are less in focus.

6

Step 6

Gathering feedback from the community that uses the system created will offer a techniques update as well as allow constructive dialogue with users.
