Comment on Is that whole gamification thing really over?parent

Pomodoros, sprints and CrossFit are not games, just structure (that many people find useful).

CrossFit is literally a game. The metcon at the end of every class is scored, and there's often a leader board. (I'd argue this is why people, included myself, get so addicted)

I'd argue that Sprints can be a game where the score is velocity.

And a Pomodoro is a game if you try and get done in 25 minutes the thing you set out to do.
