Abstract

There are many different potential applications for Serious Games
(SGs) in the field of Health and Well-being. While a significant number of SGs
have already been produced, there is often a lack of consideration of the business
aspects of the development including the market realities for a particular
SG application. The development of a value dimensions framework and the
analysis of a representative sample of SGs across a range of different Health
and Well-being functional (market) sectors revealed significant diversity between
functional sectors. Furthermore, an additional level of complexity may be
added when the end-users of a SG are separate and distinct entities from the
stakeholder(s) commissioning (and paying) for the development of a SG and as
a result may differ in their perceptions of value. It is recommended that value
propositions need to be carefully considered when planning the development of
SGs in the field of Health and Well-being.
