Episode 3: We’re In This Together: Cooperative vs. Competitive Games

In this week's episode Chris and Laura discuss cooperation and competition in games, the value each can bring to the learning experience, how to help younger players deal with loss, and why all games can be cooperative from a certain point of view. 

 

Recommended Games:

Castle Panic

Chess

Diplomacy 

Dominant Species

Dungeons & Dragons*

Forbidden Island

Risk

*Dungeons & Dragons, and particularly the adaptations we make for younger players, will require it's own episode. For now, feel free to write us for our recommendations.
