This presentation, originally given at WILU in May of 2008 examines the use and creation of digital games for introducing students to digital games. For an educational game to be effective it still has to be, above all else a game, and the authors focus on what makes a game a game. The application of those game attributes are then demonstrated using Benevolent Blue, their own information literacy first person shooter based on Half Life 2. They finish up with discussing what resources are necessary to start a digital game project and how if modifing a commerical off the shelf game it can be done with minimal computer training or funding.
