Editorial

Abstract

I am pleased to conclude, with this fourth issue, the first year of IJSG publications. It has been an exciting year, in which we started this challenge – in spite of some perplexity, also from friends - and were able to become a reference point for scientific and technological research in the field of serious games and game-based learning. All this could happen thanks to the growing relevance of the serious game field but also to the authors and to the effort and quality of an outstanding team of editors and reviewers, that was able not only to select the submitted papers, but also to accurately coach the authors in order to enhance the quality of the manuscripts.
