'Urban Game' - About
- Describe the method very briefly (2-3 sentences), so that readers have a first idea about the approach
An urban game combines serious elements of a simulation with simplified engagement mechanics of a game.
Urban game is aimed to make planning and urban design process accessible for both urban professionals and other stakeholders (e.g. citizens, decision makers, other disciplines)
It can be digital (modest tech requirements) or analogue (even more modest tech).

- What are typical questions this method is able to answer?
- Which types of knowledge does it generate? Or: what are typical results and/or outcomes?
In which situations can this method be applied?
- Give a few examples of typical settings/processes in which this method suits well
- Who is typically involved?
How does this method work in practice?
- Describe the application as practical as possible
- How much time is needed for each step?
- Which materials/rooms/technical equipment is needed?
- What are the tasks of the facilitators?
- What should be avoided?
Examples of typical results
- If you have already applied the method in the past or have access to results from other processes, please show a few examples of how the method works and of its results
What are typical next steps after applying this method?
- Give an outlook of how to follow-up: How should the results be processed and used in the further process?
Any limitations and typical pitfalls?
