The Octalysis Framework for Gamification & Behavioral Design
Gamification, a design approach centered around human motivation, takes elements from games and applies them to real-world activities. Octalysis emphasizes “Human-Focused Design” instead of mere functionality, optimizing human motivation and engagement within a system.
The framework comprises 8 Core Drives represented by an octagon shape, including Epic Meaning & Calling, Development & Accomplishment, Empowerment of Creativity & Feedback, Ownership & Possession, Social Influence & Relatedness, Scarcity & Impatience, Unpredictability & Curiosity, and Loss & Avoidance. By understanding and implementing these Core Drives, designers can create engaging experiences that cater to intrinsic motivators and promote positive user experiences.
Yu-kai's Book Actionable Gamification
After 20+ years of Gamification practice and study, after consulting for clients such as Google, Accenture, and Tesla, I decided it was time to share my knowledge and expertise with everyone around the world.
To share my knowledge, I decided to write and publish a book about Gamification, but not just any book: my goal was to write the definitive book about Gamification that empowered a reader to immediately take action on their personal and professional lives.
I’ll admit I was nervous when I published the book, but today, I am immensely proud and humbled by the positive impact that my book has created.
