What makes games a unique form of aesthetic expression?

Can they provide the means to make us better people?

Is there a danger to gamifying life?

Join the UNCG Philosophy Department in a short talk by philosophy professor Derek Skillings, followed by open conversation, that will explore the emerging field of the philosophy of games.
