In this episode, Jens is joined by Dr Jeff Brand and IGEA CEO, Ron Curry, to unpack the latest Australia Plays report, now marking 20 years of tracking how the nation plays. Together, they explore what the data reveals about modern Australia: games as an intergenerational pastime, the rise of female players to 51%, and the powerful role games play in connection, wellbeing, and digital literacy.
From cosy games to family bonding to the uniquely Australian flavour of our homegrown titles, the conversation reflects on how games have become a cultural staple, as familiar and universal as sport, music, or film. It’s a lively look at where gaming has been, where it’s heading, and why Australia remains one of the most exciting places in the world to play and make games.
