Game Happens 2019 – Conference
Saturday 9 November, Afternoon Sessions

How to innovate with the same pure, free fun of our childhood? A meeting with Giulia Olivares, game designer of two delightful apps for kids: Lola Slug, the best book app for beginning readers with and without special needs like dyslexia, and Animalibrium, a lovely video game inspired by traditional toys. Both these apps are aimed at children 3-7, a not simple age target with in-continuous-development cognitive skills that required numerous observations from truth and many ethical choices.
