I noticed that RealGames has partnered with Beliefnet to provide games that “stimulate the mind, challenge the spirit, and soothe the soul.” It’s heavy on the marketing language, but I did click over to play their memory game. The non-digital version (back in the old days) — was it called concentration??
Where do I look for research along the lines of games and building awareness, generating engagement, and building loyalty?

Try searching on “serious games,” M. I think a number of different folk use the phrase, but it generally means gaming for purposes other than pure escape or entertainment…
