Serious games are games whose primary purpose is not entertainment. Cooperative games structure communication (e.g. contract bridge) and cooperation (e.g. soccer) between players in the same group. Using serious, cooperative games improves Requirements Understanding (RU). This paper defines six RU games, maps them into ‘initial understanding space‘, and shows how to use a special Ouija board to choose the games to play on your project. An example of RU game selection is included.
