Welcome to Holopoint
Holopoint is a video games company, though our definition of game is broader than most. We believe that not only can games be used for learning, we believe games are learning.
We are completely unique in the video game industry here in Australia. We develop entertainment orientated video game titles, we provide content into the simulation industry and we create and champion the hybrid of the two – Serious Games.
What is a Serious Game?
Serious Games are the hybrid of entertainment and simulation as they utilise and leverage video game technology and techniques to provide experiential training that is educational, engaging, and fun – highlighting the best of both worlds.
But this is not an all encompassing definition of a serious game. Serious games have been used to:
- Promote a product (sometimes referred to as adver-gaming)
- Highlight or increase awareness around a social cause
- Assist in rehabilitation
- Demonstrate complex systems
- Provide a virtual walk through of an architectural feature or capital works
- Add interest and engagement to data collections and surveys
