What we’re about
The games industry is changing rapidly, especially in the Seattle area. A new type of game has emerged in the last 10 years, one focused on a purpose aside from entertainment, such as awareness on a societal problem, making a difference in your community, helping a demographic with a serious issue, and more. This inclusive group is for those interested in learning more about serious & social impact games, networking with game developers inside or outside of this space, or being a part of a group focused on using games for social impact. You do not need to be involved in serious games to attend!
