CHI PLAY offers the chance to connect with colleagues on a wide range of playful topics. Work In Progress (WIP) contributions provide a unique opportunity for authors to present reports on original yet incomplete work that seeks to advance our current knowledge in games and play through innovative or thought-provoking ideas. Great work everyone who presented this week!
