Episode Synopsis

In this episode of The Physics of Gamification, we explore how harmonic oscillation — the science behind pendulums — reveals the secret rhythm of engagement. Learn how to design gamified systems that swing naturally between challenge and comfort, avoiding burnout and boredom. Discover how rhythm keeps motivation alive, how team energy synchronizes, and why balance isn’t stillness — it’s motion around a meaningful center.
