Abstract Text One of the aims of serious role-playing games (SRPG) is to educate people by simulating the impact of their actions in various domains. Climate change is one of these domains. Such SRPGs are usually based on complex simulations of heterogeneous models. However, interfacing a SRPG with heterogeneous simulations is currently a manual and fault-prone process that requires both domain-specific and technical knowledge. This research proposes a conceptual framework that supports game designers in interfacing their SRPGs with pre-existing or custom-tailored simulation models. In addition, a first implementation of such an interface is presented that further facilitates the creation, configuration and execution of such games.
