We can do:

  • Do you want to avoid your project being perceived as green/social washing?
  • Do you want to avoid the backfire related to the perception of manipulation following nudging activities?
Use serious games to pique curiosity, generate interest, explain, and convince. Leverage the accessible and engaging language of interaction and the potential of procedural rhetoric to create empowerment and promote contributory activation to your project. Measure the impact and obtain meaningful metrics for your sustainability report.

2. Serious Games for Employee Training and Corporate Culture Transmission
  1. Are your employees lacking motivation when it comes to trainingandupskilling processes?
  2. Do you want to improve the effectiveness of these processes and obtain meaningful metrics and new insights from them?
We develop serious games to simulate scenarios, experiment with relational dynamics, transmit values, and validate knowledge and hard/soft skills. We apply andragogical training principles that value the role and experience of learners through active and intentional learning.

3. Serious games for k12 training and educational projects

  • Are you looking for a format that adapts to the changing needsof engagement and different learning styles and needs?

I have had the pleasure of working with both Vincenzo and Francesco, and I hold them in high regard for their professionalism and expertise. Whitesock's team excels in transforming complex content into engaging and effective serious games. Their meticulous approach to design and technological proficiency make them an invaluable partner for delivering research projects as well as didactic experiences. I highly recommend Whitesock to academic colleagues and companies seeking innovative and impactful solutions. "

I was looking for an educational APP developer company to create a gaming APP for autistic children, and at the same time also for normal children, taken from the animated series IL MONDO DI LEO. Careful research on the web led me to meet Whitesock, with whom we immediately established a constructive and collaborative dialogue which convinced me that I was on the right path. Their competence, seriousness seasoned with an abundant dose of collaboration and availability bore fruit and the APP-GAME IL MONDO DI LEO was successfully created. For those who, like me, do not know the world of APP developers and above all all the technology behind it, it was a unique and educational experience from which I also learned a lot. "

We work with Whitesock in international projects funded by the EU. We were impressed by the team's accuracy in exploring dynamics and real scenarios of the situations to be rendered in the game, without ever settling for clichés. Another great ability is to define the educational and teaching objectives of the game relevant and specific to each project, dialoguing with international and decidedly multidisciplinary teams. In a short time they have become our partner of choice for game design activities. "
ISSNOVA Institute's Review Sourced from Google
The Villa Montesca foundation asked WS to develop an educational project on the topic of multi-religious school inclusion. To address this very specific topic, a game was created by mutual agreement that could allow boys and girls in schools across Europe to reflect on the topic of differences linked to the religion professed. It was a very positive experience which highlighted the professionalism of the developers and their ability to be flexible in a meeting with sector experts, among other things, bearers of different cultural and religious sensitivities.

For TheSIGN Academy Whitesock is a precious partner. Not only because its founders and several team members are or have been teachers at game dev courses, but also because having a continuous comparison with an absolutely relevant player in the Italian gaming industry allows the academy to keep up to date on the needs of the industry, intercept trends and innovations related to the subjects taught in the courses and offer its students greater opportunities in terms of networking and professional opportunities. For those looking for a technological partner with high skills in game design and game development, I absolutely recommend Whitesock for its professionalism, reliability and enthusiasm. "

In the past I had had the opportunity to appreciate Vincenzo's rare skills and when Nume Plus needed consultancy and a team capable of creating 3D and VR applications we had no doubts: WS was certainly the right interlocutor . In fact, he was able to interpret our needs and accompanied us throughout the entire construction process with attention and proactivity. In a complex area such as information technology, graphics and so-called new technologies, they have been able to combine creative invention, storyboarding ability and mastery of programming and graphics. It's not a little! "

I contacted Vincenzo after meeting him during the presentation of the "Il Mondo di Leo" project, to invite him to lecture at our Executive Master in Behavioral Economics and Nudging. I found Whitesock's approach to be extremely thorough and scientifically valid. As expected, Vincenzo's contribution was very valuable and well-aligned with our master's program, receiving super-highly positive feedback from all students. I believe that the theoretical and practical expertise behind Whitesock makes them a valuable partner for effective corporate training or ESG initiatives, aiming not only at behavioral change but also at transforming mindsets. "
IESCUM's Review Sourced from Google
My collaboration with Whitesock began with the need to create a virtual reality experience for the dissemination of scientific data about the relationship between diet and sperm quality to the public, to be used in schools of various levels and in the university setting (and so it was).Initially, I was concerned about the differences in language between biologists and game developers. However, these concerns quickly dissipated: the Whitesock team showed a remarkable ability to research and adapt to our scientific needs. This synergy enriched both parties, demonstrating the value of interdisciplinary collaboration.The final result, Oxistress, rigorously respects scientific data and conveys it through an accessible and engaging experience.With this project, Whitesock has successfully transformed complex content into an active and immersive learning experience that enhances student engagement and understanding.That's why I highly recommend Whitesock to any educational or research institution looking to innovate its teaching and scientific dissemination methods.Giulia CollodelAssociate Professor of Applied Biology, Department of Molecular and Developmental Medicine, University of Siena. "
