EGG (the Experimental Gaming Group) is a cross faculty research group for digital games in the DIT. EGG has members from the School of Computing, Digital Media Centre and the Learning Technology Group. Our aim is to develop courses and research on digital games, serious games, robots and toys. Some of our recent activities include the hosting of the 9th International Conference on Computer Games: AI, Animation, Mobile, Educational & Serious Games. We also offer a digital games stream as part of our BSc in Computer Science and have a number of ongoing research projects. The group also runs game design workshops every year for secondary school students with games industry guru Ernest Adams. EGG has been featured in the Irish Times and in the May 2008 PC Live magazine. See here, here and here for high resolution scans of the articles.
