Serious Games Uncover Serious Requirements

by TJ Keitt, Tom Grant, Ph.D.

with Ellen Daley, Chétina Muteba

This is an excerpt

Executive Summary

Serious gaming provides an alternate way to collect and analyze product requirements. An increasing number of companies are using serious games to inform product decisions. At the same time, a small number of serious gaming vendors have emerged, providing both training and tools. Serious games deserve serious attention. They can circumvent many of the traditional problems with product requirements, including collecting sufficient information across customers, partners, and internal stakeholders to make product decisions. Not only are the games relatively lightweight exercises, but they also use a lighter touch to resolve many debates over product decisions.
