Exercise 3 – Modern games<br />

Some games do not involve <strong>gambling</strong> but may involve chance. Some of these games have<br />

rewards in the form of points or game dollars that can be spent within the game, such as<br />

decorating the game environment with objects, or getting access to a wider range of game<br />

characters.<br />

Work in pairs to answer the following questions<br />

a) Why do you think game designers build in rewards?<br />

b) Does winning rewards in these kind of games necessarily mean that a player would be lucky in<br />

other games of chance?<br />

c) Do you think that these reward systems should be restricted in games aimed at young people?<br />
