Caveat: I know nothing about gamification. This is the observation of an uncle.

I agree with the commentators saying that FortNite is the newest, fastest growing social network. I spent a year watching my nephews play FortNite and Roblox. Their communication (voice & chat) with their friends is a HUGE factor. These MMORPGs are their social world.

Transposing with my own childhood, it'd be like if my friends and I had every Star Wars and GI Joe and Lego set AND awesome walkie talkies. Basically, crack for kids.

(FWIW, I spent much of the year dragging my nephews and their friends to museums, galleries, hiking, swimming, etc. They all pretended to hate it, but would nonetheless still enjoy themselves.)
