GAMES FOR CITIES is a public program that explores the role of gaming for resolving complex urban issues. Through a series of events, it aims to document, network, and promote the emerging field of City-Gaming. The program is structured around three challenges, developed in close collaboration with three Dutch municipalities:

1. The Citizen City Challenge // Eindhoven
3. The Inclusive City Challe

nge // Utrecht

For each of these challenges, the program will bring together local and international City Gaming experts to explore the potential gaming has to offer for each of these themes. This will be done through a hands-on Game Jam that will lead to a new City Game Prototype and through a City Game Talk Show that will reflect on this. GAMES FOR CITIES will deliver three concrete outcomes:

1. A guidebook for policy makers and regulators to employ city gaming in their daily work.

2. Activation and growth of the City Gaming community through public events and an online network.

3. A comprehensive City Gaming database on the Games for Cities website. GAMES FOR CITIES is an initiative of Play the City and generously supported by Creative Industries NL. The programme has been compiled together with Play the City’s knowledge partners AUAS Play and Civic Media, UU New Media Studies, TU Delft The Why Factory, and The Mobile City. For the content of specific events, partnerships are established with: City of Amsterdam, City of Eindhoven, City of Utrecht, Pakhuis de Zwijger, Het Nieuwe Instituut, and Designhuis.
