Reach Out Central: a serious game designed to engage young men to improve mental health and wellbeing Young men in Australia have higher rates of completed suicide, antisocial behaviour, and drug and alcohol problems than young women.1 They are also less likely to seek help during the formative adolescent and young adult years, with results from the 2007 National Survey of Mental Health and Wellbeing indicating that only 13% of young men aged 16–24 years seek help when experiencing mental health difficulty.2 These figures are at odds with findings suggesting that most young people: know someone experiencing depression and can therefore identify the symptoms of the illness;3 are aware of evidence-based treatments; and can recognise the helpfulness of exercise, brief psychological therapies, medication and counselling, as well as the harmfulness of alcohol or illicit substances.4 4.

Video Game May Help Treat Teen Depression April 19, 2012 -- A video game that teaches teens to shoot down and label negative thoughts may relieve depression as least as well as more traditional talk therapy, a new study shows. The game, called "SPARX," which stands for Smart, Positive, Active, Realistic, X-factor thoughts, was developed by researchers and teachers in New Zealand. Players choose an avatar and navigate seven realms in a 3D fantasy world. In each realm, they learn classic mental behavioral skills for combating depression. "These GNATS fly at the avatar and say negative things like 'you're a loser,'" says researcher Sally N. "We used a lot of allegory," Merry says. Each realm takes about 30 minutes to navigate. To test the game, researchers assigned 187 teens with mild to moderate depression to either play the video game or get usual treatment from trained counselors at schools and youth clinics. Both standard therapy and "SPARX" reduced levels of anxiety and depression by about one-third. Continued
Settlers of Catan for 2 Players This is a variation of Settlers of Catan for 2 players. Rationale Settlers is designed for 3 or 4 players. When played by 2 players the game is a lot less interesting: Because there are only 2 rolls of the dice between a player's turns, the players tend to be shorter on resources than when playing with 3 or 4 players. In a 2 player game, once a player gets ahead in resource gathering potential (settlements and cities in good locations), it is nearly impossible for the other player to catch up. Rule Modifications Although there is no substitute for the dynamics of a full 4 person game, I have found that the following rules make for a fun 2 player game. Optional Rules I add the following two rules, although neither is essential to the variant described above. Other Variants Here are some other 2 player variants: Two Player Variant by Ethan Sprang.
