This book explores the ways in which the broad range of technologies that make up the smart city infrastructure can be harnessed to incorporate more playfulness into the day-to-day activities that take place within smart cities, making them not only more efficient but also more enjoyable for the people who live and work within their confines. The book addresses various topics that will be of interest to playable cities stakeholders, including the human–computer interaction and game designer communities, computer scientists researching sensor and actuator technology in public spaces, urban designers, and (hopefully) urban policymakers. This is a follow-up to another book on Playable Cities edited by Anton Nijholt and published in 2017 in the same book series, Gaming Media and Social Effects.

Includes chapters on location-based entertainment and games, game-based and public sharing of affective experiences, and game-based social services Addresses outdoor play for children in natural environments, what can be learned from traditional play, and how biodiversity awareness can be enhanced in urban environments, not only for children Critically reviews commercial playable city initiatives; the McDonaldization, the Disneyization, the gamification, and the privatization of public spaces; and the Googleization of smart city services
