Just got a follow up email from the Social Gaming Summit, which I attended. Here are some of the sessions that were interesting:
Casual MMOs and Immersive Worlds
Many so-called "casual MMOs" and immersive worlds are casual only in the sense that the point of the game is not to bash gruesome looking monsters or the game isn't set in a sci-fi fantasy world. The engagement story around existing and upcoming casual MMOs is real and very compelling. This panel will discuss what it takes to build a successful casual MMO that users love to play.
