The gamification approach \u2013 applying \u201cgame principles and game design in a nongame context\u201d has gained increasing scientific attention in recent years (Coil, Ettinger, &amp; Eisen, 2017, p. 1). Concerning interdisciplinary research projects, studies indicate that the character of game development is beneficial (Zimmerman, 2008), for example by strengthening social relationships within groups (Hsu &amp; Wang, 2010).<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Within the game development process of ForChange, not only external experts from the gaming industry but also academic consultants experienced in game studies were included.
