    Funology, Forerunner of Gameification? [ux gameification usability]

    ‘I find the sentiment within this book to be important in that the experience of the user, their enjoyment, their delight, and thedeliciousness (the Umami) of the software or application are often forgotten or ignored in a headlong rush to implement accessibility, usability, and inclusion. Indeed this enjoyment aspect goes into my current thinking on the practice of interface and interaction engineering within the software engineering domain.’ Funology, is a difficult book to read because the majority of chapters are so very certain over the theories and frameworks they present, seemingly without any direct scientific support.
