This session will provide an inside look into the world of video game design, focusing on loot boxes and gacha systems, and how they exploit psychological vulnerabilities. Led by Dr. Héctor Fuster, an expert in psychology and senior game designer, participants will gain insight into the mechanics of these systems and the psychological principles underlying them. The discussion will illuminate why adolescents are particularly susceptible to these gaming incentives and draw on scientific research to explore the relationship between these practices and gambling behavior. Additionally, the session will foster critical thinking about the ethical implications of current game monetization strategies and what the future may hold for the industry. This event is an excellent opportunity to better understand contemporary video game design and to develop an informed perspective on its potential effects on players.
