,LECTURE 1 – INTRODUCTION

WHAT IS A GAME?

 Part of, and expression of culture
 Art
 Simulation
 Community
 Design material
 ...


Juul’s classic model of games:
 Various definitions, various properties of games:
- Rules
- Outcome
- Goals (and conflict)
- Interaction
- Different from “normal” life (not productive, artificial
conflicts,...)
- Not work, voluntary, relaxation
- Social
- Fiction


AUTOTELIC = Games are autotelic: You play for the sake of playing, not to reach external goals.


Four types of games (Caillois):
1. AGON (competition) = How good you are determines whether you reach the goals.
2. ALEA (chance) = Luck and randomness determine (partly) whether you reach the goals.
3. MIMICRY (imitation) = You can take on the role of something/someone else.
4. ILINX (vertigo) = Emphasis on movement/speed, the goal being to get an enjoyable feeling.


Game versus ‘play’ (Caillois, o.a.):




 Games can be played with a ludus and a paidia attitude.
 Play (paidia) can also take place without a game.
 More of this in Lecture 13.

,PERSPECTIVES

 GAME = Structure and technology, how these determine the player experience.
 PLAYERS = How games are used in the real world, effects on players.
 CULTURE = How culture affects games and vice versa, subcultures related to games.


GROUPS OF RESEARCHERS

 FORMALISTS = Focus on the games themselves or related philosophical questions (film studies) –
Categorization, reasoning.
 SITUATIONISTS = Focus on the players and culture (context and variation, ‘real’ experiences).


Further subgroups within formalists:
 NARRATOLOGY = Games as a way to tell stories.
 LUDOLOGY = Games as a collection of rules (gameplay).

, LECTURE 2 – GAME ELEMENTS

GROUPS OF RESEARCHERS

 Formalists: Focus on the games themselves or related philosophical questions
(film studies) – Categorization, reasoning.
 Situationists: Focus on the players and culture (context and variation, ‘real’
experiences).




RULES, GOALS AND CHALLENGES:

RULES = Define the space, objects, passage of time, consequences of actions. E.g.: Giving people a soccerfield
and a ball only, given that they don’t know soccer they won’t know what to do

 Gives you a framework to work with, how to work towards goals.
 Passage of time: Does the game have real world time or not? E.g.: Complete this task in 15
minutes/game about the different times, completing a task will bring you to the Middle Ages
 Consequences: Damage/morality. E.g.: GTA, if you drive your car against something it will look
damaged and be slower + Killing civilians will lower your morality score



1. OPERATIONAL RULES (in the GDD): Required to be able to play the game.
2. BASIC, “CONSTITUATIVE” RULES: Underlying, often logical/mathematical rules on which the
operational rules are based.
3. RULES OF CONDUCT: Often unwritten. E.g.: Sportsmanship, cheating




- Facilitate goals, progress/development, challenge.



 “REAL” RULES = If the game looks really much like real life, functions and looks like real life, we
assume that it works in a similar way as real life works. E.g.: Assassin’s Creed
 ARTIFICIAL RULES = Rules that we create in order to create a game, from objects that not necessarily
have that inherent function within themselves.



GOALS =
 The reason for players to play the game.
 Achievable but challenging.
 Can be determined by the game, or by the player themselves.
 There are a lot:
