This video examines how Game Designers can explore morality using mechanics, systems and narrative framing devices. It uses Miguel Sicarts book, "the Ethics of Computer games" to assess how video games, as an interactive artform, can get us to reflect on moral issues and break free of the trap of our own ego.

DGBL is also getting a bit old now. I saw some other things come up when I was searching for them. (I literally entered the titles in Amazon's search field so I was tempted to give you a snarky response.) Some of those others might be good but I haven't read them so can't say which are any good.

Some of them are more focused on kids. I remember DGBL was focused on work-place training.
