II. How to gamify your city?
Urban Gaming / Street Games
multi-player location-based games played out on city streets, built up on urban environments
city as playground
on-line communication
mobile localization technologies (smartphones, GPS receivers, webcams, Internet)
UGC
usually part game, part performance art, part sociology experiment
sometimes there isn't really a point to the game other than the experience itself
Starting points
information circuit (blurring of private and public areas)
non-technology ascendants: flash mobs; games like hide-and-seek in the store, capture the
flag, humans vs. zombies etc.
technology ascendants: computer games
Examples
Geocaching
since 1990’s
GPS used to pinpoint exact locations and find „treasure“
Pacmanhattan
recreation of video game sensation Pac-Man
a player dressed as Pac-man runs around the Washington square park while attempting to
collect all of the virtual "dots" x four players dressed as the ghosts attempt to catch Pac-man
before all of the dots are collected
on-line advisors x runners in the streets
Can You See Me Now?

III. Urban Sports Gamification
Urban Running
social running games
gadgets: trainers, pedometers, heart rate straps, sport watches, smart sensors, smartphones
(see Nike +; Body Media; Fit bit; Run Keeper)
how does it work? http://earndit.com/how
Examples
Nike +
iPhone + iPod + Nike SportWatch + Nike SportBand + Facebook
track time, distance and route of your run
start new run -> post it to your facebook page -> get friend’s cheers -> get motivation ->
compete with friends
Nike+ Tag
GPS iPhone app
runners compete against each other and whoever runs the slowest, the shortest distance, or
starts running latest in the day is designated as “it”
don’t be tagged -> don’t be „it“!
Nike Grid
London is your game board: 40 postcodes in play and 4 phone boxes in each
run -> collect phone boxes in your postcode -> the more runs, the more points -> earn
badges
no need of smartphones, pedometers or special Nike branded trainers -> low tech (in high
life:))
„Seber policajtovi čepici a zmiz!“ („Get the cops cap and run away!“)
Roman Týc for Nike
ranking: one cap = base; two caps at once = double catch; beret = summer extras, run = clean
game, from vehicle/public transport = pollo; Bonus for cooperation of the cop
no need of gadgets
5. Markéta Dolejšová, 2012
Zombies, Run!
ultra-immersive running game for the iPhone, iPod Touch, and Android
see: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GyFqZtKvya0
Urban Cycling
social biking games
gadgets: bike, GPS locator
Example
Rider Spoke
combining theatre with game play and state of the art technology
cycle through the city alone at night and hide
get bike -> find a hiding -> reveal a question -> answer -> find all hidings and answers of other
players
not "UGC" but „PBC“(„Publicly Created Contributions")
...Universal urban sports-gamifyers?
there are almost no examples of other urban sports gamification
the world needs more urban games!
IV. New urban game: schodies!
brand new urban sport: urban stairs running
urban game: Prague as a playground
map mashup
on-line / off-line game
no need of special gadgets (shoes, pedometers etc.)
howto:
look into map -> find your stairs -> run them out in the street-> mark your effort -> write a
comment -> collect stairs -> collect badges -> share and compete with others -> enjoy your
city!
UGC: add new stairs
6. Markéta Dolejšová, 2012
Gamification of schodies
the more stairs, the more success - be the best schodies runner!
collecting badges
finding new stairs - enjoying the feeling of being “schodies developer”
sharing of success: facebook, twitter
Goals
