Developing cooperative serious games has specific challenges of enabling players to achieve both gaming and learning goals in a cooperative fashion. The complexity of handling game and learning requirements leads to the lack of guidance for systematically developing cooperative serious games (SGs). To overcome the challenges, we propose a systematic approach to utilize elements of entertainment cooperative games to foster player engagement in SGs. The guideline, which consists of steps to transform the existing cooperative entertainment games into cooperative SGs, is proposed. To demonstrate the guideline application, we developed a game prototype follow the steps. To validate our guidelines, we conducted a user study to verify games for their learning potential. Learning objectives related to urban logistics are defined and limited the scope of our research. We ask participants to do pretest and posttest to measure their memorization. The study showed that the game developed followed by our method could support players to achieve learning objectives.
