This morning I stumbled upon my chicken-scratch notes that would later become Cozy Stickerville. As you can see, the game stayed pretty true to my initial ideas!

Call for proposals from Asmodee's Game In Lab. Each project will be eligible for a maximum grant of €20,000: www.game-in-lab.org/en/internati...

We invite international research teams to submit proposals for fundamental or applied research on
any topic related to board games, broadly defined. Selected research teams will receive a grant
from Game in Lab to support their work. We welcome projects from all academic disciplines, from
sociology to the health sciences, and we particularly encourage interdisciplinary proposals.
This year, we are particularly interested in projects that explore the following areas:
- Sustainability, Justice and Inclusion: The role of tabletop games in addressing crises of
environmental and social sustainability, and in promoting social justice and inclusion.
Gathering and interpreting evidence about the role of games in promoting climate action
and / or driving sustainable transitions in society, as well as in supporting social action on
inclusion or in fostering accessibility and diversity through their mechanics, dynamics and
aesthetics.
- Health and well-being: The potential of games to support healthy lives, therapeutic
applications, and community health and resilience. Additionally, we are interested in
research addressing the pleasures of play, and the role of games in helping players develop
competencies to participate actively in social life.
