"We do not play to learn, but because we have fun and although one of the collateral effects is learning, you can not only attribute that function to games," said Oriol Comas, writer and scholar of board games, who has imparted the inaugural lecture "Un mundo de juegos" ["A world of games"] of the first summer course of the Universitat Jaume I of Castelló in 2018 "Inteligencia en juego: beneficios de los juegos de ingenio para la mente y el cuerpo" ["Intelligence at stake: benefits of the games of ingenuity for the mind and the body"]. This activity, which has the collaboration of Asmodee, Homoludicus Castelló and Devir, is aimed at students and professionals related to psychology, education, socio-cultural animation and, in general, people with a restless mind.
