Video games are experts at teaching you the rules of a game and building mastery. If your goal is to relay complex information about how to do some set of tasks for an end goal (aka. all of healthcare), then there are lots of lessons to learn from games.

The greatest power of games is that you can explore this landscape of different agencies. The greatest danger of games is that you can get sucked into this experience of just craving and wanting to be in a clear, crisp and gentle universe where you know exactly what to do and exactly how well it’s measured.

When kids play videogames, they practice teaching themselves – how to win – in the process they pick up new skills. Videogames teach problem solving.
