"Emission Impossible" is a computer game for agricultural apprentices. The Oeschger Centre of the University of Bern aims to sensitize young farmers to protect the climate. The game's objective is to produce as little greenhouse gases on the farm as possible, by smart decisions. But the economic reality may not be lost. A good player keeps the balance between ecological and economical aims. A difficult but not an impossible mission!

In "Mangrove", the player navigates a monstrous creature, composed of forest trolls, which makes its way through a mythical mangrove forest. Of course, the forest is also home to other mighty inhabitants. The aim is to speedily control and tactically combining the various action units within the own play figure in order to maintain the territorial supremacy in the forest.

The love struck giant is on his way to his beloved. His walk leads through a valley, which is inhabited by all sorts of small, wilful creatures. The sensitive giant is careful not to squash them. If he does not succeed in getting his huge feet around the hustle and bustle and if he crushes too many of the small creatures, he becomes deeply frustrated, abandons his walk and stands up his date. "Tête à Pied" is played with a specially designed controller, which transfers the hand movements of the player directly to the feet of the giant.

The cute and droll iPad pet depends on the responsible behaviour of its owner. "Polppetone" was created as an experimental design to explore the readiness to use violence in games. If the player tortures the rabbit too much it will die.

A duck and her Siamese twin share a body. Together they are the "Siamente". They live in a secluded spot on top of a mountain and enjoy their life of idyllic togetherness. That is until the sisters become aware of a drake on the other side of the valley. They fall head over heels in love and risk the dangerous flight to meet their beloved.
The Siamente is "flown" over the valley by two players, whereby each of the players controls one of the two wings. The aim is to achieve a kind of teamwork, where the players work together to keep the "Siamente" in the air and to control it.
