Exercises, wargames, serious games - you can argue about what they're called, but they're often pretty similar, and they're a great way to train, educate, build connections, and even analyse challenges in a way that's easy to grasp for most people.
I design to a purpose, whether you're looking for an exercise to test your response plans, or a serious game to help raise awareness about a specific topic. You can find out more below, or get directly in touch at hello@robgrayston.co.uk.
Many people who wargame at work or develop serious games started out in a recreational space, gaining experience that would be useful later in life through playing games with friends and iterating on commercially available products used for having fun. You can see my own contributions to these kinds of games here.
