Schell Games has long been committed to making "transformational games," or games that change players for the better. Using the Transformational Framework, the company develops these games with a detailed, practical pre-production process built around a set of exploratory questions that maximizes the potential for players to change in a specific way that transfers and persists beyond the play session.

Jesse has worked on a wide variety of innovative game and simulation projects for both entertainment and education, but he is best known for his award-winning book The Art of Game Design: A Book of Lenses and his predictions about the future of gaming technology.
