To get to “engaging” (ITA avvincenti) we have to ask about the user. UX design is understanding people – not by example. You won’t go anywhere by just hacking code.
UI and UX are more a theme for psychology & anthropology than software engineering.

the flow
The blurry edge between challenging and too difficoult.
There is the flow. We are tackling the tip of something complex. When we are

Gamification of routine work does not make sense because we want surprises, new patterns in games A game is about loops -> mostly primitive ones

Drawing with your figer on the iPad is nice. Racing with small cars is beautiful [polistil?]

Considers shape, speed. Also runtime “turbo” interventions. You don’t drive – which simplifies development, but is a plus here, not a minus.

“This game is engaging”
Engagement can be caused by disparate reasons:
1. Engagement because of s fun base mechanic
2. Engagement by using a virtual world projection mechanics
Engaging design is ambiguous: can mean engaging by using a base mechanic (flipper tower defence, verify the chapter in theory of fun), or by using a virtual world projection mechanics
