Achievement systems originate from online entertainment systems like Microsoft’s XBox Live or Blizzard’s World of Warcraft. The original intention is to keep track of a user’s deeds in the virtual gaming world and to reward her with records in her profile. The "Reward System" transfers this achievement concept into the real word.
