      ab: This article explores the potential of video games as an interactive entertainment medium with unprecedented capacities for enacting novel educational and developmental practices. Based on three field applications of Integral Research, six different methodologies were applied to explore the potential applications of video games to catalyze and integrate horizontal and vertical human development (also referred to as translation and transformation). Various qualitative and quantitative studies were conducted, including phenomenological and structural analyses of the researcher; discussions with leading integral practitioners, video game critics, and designers; an online survey; attendance of video game conferences and events; and extensive review of the literature related to the educational and developmental potentials of video games. These potentials were not only accessed and validated by various methodological data, but also categorized into an Integral-Developmental Trojan Horse (INDENTRO) video game design framework. The INDENTRO framework applies a Trojan Horse approach for catalyzing and integrating human development through the medium of video games, based on complementary applications of the AQAL model, Integral Life Practice, and Integral Play.
