See you in Hawaii!

==== Interaction with games is considered to have positive effects on our cognitive, emotional, social abilities and motivation (5, 9, 10, 13, 15, 22, 30). It isn’t surprising, then that our reality and lives are increasingly becoming game-like (6). This is not limited to the fact that digital games have become a pervasive part of our lives, but perhaps most prominently with the fact that activities, systems and services that are not traditionally perceived as game-like are becoming either intentionally or unintentionally gameful (4, 6, 10, 13, 14).

Intentional gamification refers to a “process of transforming any activity, system, service, product or organizational structure into one which affords positive experiences, skills and practices similar to those afforded by games, and is often referred to as the gameful experience. This is commonly but optionally done with an intention to facilitate changes in behaviours or cognitive processes. As the main inspirations of gamification are games and play, gamification is commonly pursued by employing game design” (6).

Gamification has become an umbrella concept that, to varying degrees, includes and encompasses other related technological developments such as serious games (3), game-based learning (12, 24), exergames & quantified-self (8, 9, 21), games with a purpose/human-based computation games (17, 28), and persuasive technology (20).

Secondly, gamification also manifests in a gradual, albeit unintentional, cultural, organizational and societal transformation stemming from the increased pervasive engagement with games, gameful interactions (6), game communities and player practices. For example, recently we have witnessed the popular emergence of augmented reality games (16; 17) and virtual reality technologies (2, 29) that enable a more seamless integration of games into our physical reality. Case in point are urban spaces that are increasingly becoming playgrounds for different games and -play activities. While location-based games such as Pokémon Go (1) were able to attract millions of players, concepts such as Playable Cities (19) and Urban Gamification (26) highlight the large scale changes that games are bringing about in the smart cities of the future. Moreover, the media ecosystem has also experienced a degree of ludic transformation: with user generated content becoming an important competitor for large media corporations. This transformation has led to the development of several emerging phenomena such as the Youtube and modding cultures (23, 27) and esports (7, 25), that have penetrated the cultural membrane allowing games to seep into domains hitherto dominated by traditional media.
