This document discusses using games to help early career researchers meet the requirements of the Vitae Researcher Development Framework (RDF). It provides an overview of research games and gamification, and how specific games map to the domains within the RDF. The document suggests identifying which RDF domains lack associated games or activities, and whether new games could be developed to fill these gaps. Feedback from group work using these games is also discussed.
