====Design heuristics for location-based mobile games====
The heuristics were derived through the analysis of three location-based mobile games for informal learning in places of cultural value. The games are:
  * **Explore!**, a game for the archaeological park of the roman city **Egnazia**, Italy,
  * **[[en:museumscrabble|MuseumScrabble]]**, a game for the **Solomos Museum**, a local history museum in Zakynthos, Greece, 
  * **Frequency 1550**, a game for the city-center of **Amsterdam**, in the Netherlands.

===Background=== 
The method that was followed for acquiring the heuristics is documented in the following publications:
