Educational Gaming Journey to the Italian Renaissance

Founded out of the LIVE Lab at Texas A&M University, Triseum has developed an art history game, ARTé: Mecenas, in which students assume the role of a Medici and balance relationships with powerful city–states, merchant factions, and the Catholic Church or risk excommunication, exile, and bankruptcy.

The website serves as a “town square” where students can be inspired, learn from peers, and get feedback from design professionals.
