Dear Colleagues,

We
 are happy to announce the 10th international conference on virtual 
worlds and games for serious applications – the VS-Games 2018 in 
Würzburg, Germany.

Games and virtual worlds
 for serious applications have continued with their triumphant advance 
in 2018. Never before have they experienced more attention by society, 
politicians and researchers. Their success can be seen in a variety of 
fields, including education, medicine or engineering. This makes related
 research to their design, application and evaluation even more 
important. The conference therefore aims to provide a forum for 
researchers from different disciplines to share new case studies of 
practice, to present virtual world infrastructure developments, as well 
as new frameworks, methodologies and theories relevant to our community.

Topics of interest are:

• AI applications for serious games
• Serious games methodologies
• User-modelling in serious games
• Pervasive gaming
• Interactivity issues
• Game design
• Alternate reality games
• Virtual environments
• Augmented reality
• Visualisation techniques
• Human-computer interaction
• Mobile games
• Education and learning
• Multimedia gaming
• Case studies in serious games and virtual worlds
