Playing with international PhD students

On 2023.06.19 we hosted at the Faculty of Architecture more than 30 doctoral students from more than a dozen different countries around the world representing various specialties. During the meeting they tested a prototype of a card game, an urban planning game titled HOUSING ESTATE GAME . The meeting was aimed at testing the possibility of playing various games by participants without professional knowledge (education in urban planning/architecture/there were only two people in the group specialized in architcture).
Trials of the games ‘BLACKJACK – WAR OF INDICATORS’ ‘SOLITAIRE’ and ‘HOUSING ESTATE GAME’ were conducted, as well as trials with augmented reality.
