    The multiplayer arcade table“Kuti” emerged 2016 from the “Games Master” program at the University of Applied Sciences in Hamburg. In our presentation we will explain the ideas behind it and our findings since its inception. Kuti has been an intriguing challenge for game design students and a robust play and learn environment for all ages. Recently we extended our research into collaborative gaming for the platform and into teaching frameworks for game design and development for children. Our presentation will unveil why bar arcades got more than just a few things right, why most digital games are way too complex, how different games for two players facing each other need to be and how teaching children the basics of programming with a game also might look like.
