Play something real

Good games are meaningful. Sure, it is a lot of fun to figure out what that darned 5 letter word is that might be the solution to a puzzle, but play can do so much more than just being fun. DAGS cares most about games that help us better understand what it means to be human. Our work is representative of efforts to expand the capabilities of game designers in capturing the profoundly wonderous experiences that may otherwise go unnoticed.
