PlayReal

The three verbs "cooperate, craft, learn" characterize living and working in PlayReal. In all quests and assignments, cooperation is the main focus, collaborative discussions are followed by crafting, crafting leads to learning. Knowledge and skills are only interesting and desirable if they can be used to do or make something new, to add something of yourself in whichever form. This process is the "learning-crafting" cycle and it favours an exploratory learning style.

Collective intelligence

Cooperation and sharing is the heart of PlayReal. Cooperation is the ability to engage in dialogue to create something together from dialogue, something which transcends the power and ability of the individual. Cooperation refers to the social and relational aspects in PlayReal, the relationships between the workers (players), parents, co-workers (NPCs) , game and the forcefields surrounding that, the societal context, local, regional, national and global. Cooperation doesn't happen by chance, it must be learned and organised, within PlayReal, in the world, society. If we experience that cooperation leads to something better and more beautiful, then a force will awaken within, everything happens by itself, by nature, organically. The game becomes everyone's, a community.
