It puts Thoreau’s ideas about life into playable form. The game exemplifies Fullerton’s design methods, where she encourages designers to find inspiration in ideas and activities that have meaning to them and then see where that leads rather than rely on standard genres and design solutions. She says “Serendipity is a great design strategy, and letting yourself recognize that you’ve found something great even though you weren’t looking for it.” Walden, a game was released on Itch.io on July 4, 2017 and subsequently named Game of the Year and Most Significant Impact at the 2017 Games for Change awards.
