Frank Lantz | The Philosophy of Games | Win-Win Podcast

Games are an integral part of life, but what exactly ARE they? Why do we love playing them so much? And what role should games serve in society? In this episode I speak with award-winning game designer Frank Lantz and author of the new book "The Beauty of Games". Frank was the director of NYU’s Game Center for 15 years, and has designed countless games including Wipeout, Progress Quest and one of my recent favorites: Universal Paperclips. So strap in for a deep philosophical dive into games, life and the universe.
