Serious games, simulations, adventure games, RPG – we explore the ways different genres highlight serious topics: for instance the life in a totalitarian society, the construction of a sustainable environment, the sources and spreading of false news.
AI People
The game combines a sandbox simulation with adventure and RPG elements. Characters, controlled by artificial intelligence, learn, feel, interact with the environment, use tools and interact with other characters. Instead of a fixed plot, they dynamically react to the players, the environment and each other. Take your place as a character in an emerging story or create unique custom scenarios.

Games from FAMU Department of Game Design
Game Design at FAMU is a master's degree program focused on intensive development in the field of computer game design. First year students work in Michal Berlinger's workshop (Amanita Design, Circus Atos) with the assignment "game prototype". The results are shorter games testing ideas and concepts, which the students iteratively refine under Michal's guidance. Second year students work on their graduation games in Jaroslav Meloun's workshop (Dex, Saturnalia, FixFox). The result is more complete and closed game projects, with which they finish their studies.

This crowdsourcing approach makes it possible to contribute to scientists' work on understanding how letter shapes have evolved.
