Abstract

In this paper, we propose a set of guidelines to facilitate the design of digital games to support elderly-children interaction. We conducted a literature review to identify preliminary elements in the elderly-children interaction process and assessed elder-child interaction during their using two digital games to complement the initial findings. Based on these results, we proposed a set of guidelines to aid in the design of digital games. To validate the guidelines, we conducted an evaluation on the design of digital games with a group of 12 postgraduate students from two local Computer Science programs. Results are promising, indicating a high perception of usefulness, ease of use and intention of use of the proposed guidelines by the group of developers.
