Abstract
This work is based on the classification of social interaction into intrinsically motivated, encouraged, and enforced interactions. The aim is to use a VR Escape Game to develop and implement three puzzles, each with one type of social interaction (in this case social touch).
The aim is to develop and implement three puzzles that include social touch, based on a VR escape game, to investigate whether the type of touch and the order in which it is experienced influence the player experience.
