So what is a better way than to gamify acquiring new knowledge on sustainability? You can create compelling game content by combining both city, architecture, and environment-related tasks. 

To test the players’ know-how on issues of sustainability, Loquiz enables to build: 

• City games with twists – e.g. questions on what is a sustainable city, on energy and water resources/ traffic limitation regulations used in the town;

#3: Breakout/ workshop sessions to memorize learning

One of the main goals of training, conference, or meetup is that the learnings will be retained and, besides this, implemented by the participants in their further actions. Making notes on new knowledge is, of course, something that supports the memorizing process, however, spicing the event up with a fun quiz or clue game is taking the know-how memorizing method into a new height.
