Description

The third EPIC-WE Cultural Game Jam took place from 17 to 28 March 2025, across two weeks, at the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision (Media Museum) and the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences. The event involved 23 students from the Creative Research minor, who worked in small groups (3–4 participants) to develop 8–9 board and card game prototypes. The game jam combined archive exploration (museum visit, depot tour, and an “archive memory game”) with iterative game design activities such as brainstorming, paper prototyping, playtesting, and expert feedback.The overarching theme was the EPIC-WE “glocal” prompt “That’s not Fair!”, encouraging participants to explore issues of inequality, justice, and societal roles through games, while engaging—though unevenly—with cultural heritage collections.
