Game playing is fundamental to human life.
Not only for entertainment, but also to acquire
the necessary skills for survival.
Game playing can take a variety of forms, but nowadays
the dominant game paradigm is undoubtedly the interactive video game,
to be played on a multimedia-enhanced PC or game console.
Currently, games are being (re) discovered
in the academic field, another serious areas of society,
as excellent means for both the transfer of knowledge and,
perhaps more importantly, for attitude change.
