Rövid leírás:
Games are no longer confined to card tables and computer screens. Emmy award winning games like "The Fallen Alternate Reality Game" (based on the ABC show) or "The Lost Experience" (based on the CBS hit show)- are pervasive games in that they blur traditional boundaries of game play. This book gives game designers the tools they need to create cutting edge pervasive games.

Quickly emerging from the fast-paced growth of mobile communications and wireless technologies, pervasive games take gaming away from the computer screen and back to the three-dimensional world. Now games can be designed to be played in public spaces like shopping malls, conferences, museums and other non-traditional game venues. Game designers need to understand how to use the world as a gamespace-and both the challenges and advantages of doing so.
This book shows how to change the face of play-who plays, when and where they play and what that play means to all involved. The authors explore aspects of pervasive games that concern game designers: what makes these games compelling, what makes them possible today and how they are made. For game researchers, it provides a solid theoretical, philosophical and aesthetic understanding of the genre.
Pervasive Games covers everything from theory and design to history and marketing.
"This book is the definitive guide to the past, present, and future of stories and games that jump out of their cages and into your real life. Whether it's characters that call you on the phone or game play that happens on the bus on your way to work, this kind of immersive entertainment will define the culture of the next century as surely as the movies dominated the last one. -Sean Stewart, Chief Creative, Fourth Wall Studios, and author of the cross-media international bestseller, Cathy's Book

Foreword: written by a KEY person within game research community and industry. Possible contributors include Eric Zimmerman, Sean Stewart, Tracy Fullerton, Greg Costikyan and Jessica Mulligan.Introduction: Explanation why pervasive games are interesting. Our position as ludologists. Basic terminology. Instructions on how to use the book. Part I: TheoryCase Study A: Killer: The Game of AssassinationBy Markus Montola & Jaakko Stenros. Killer is an extremely simple and compelling pervasive game that has spread to countless campuses since the 60?s. It is discussed as the first case example, since the simple game demonstrates pervasive gameplay in an understandable fashion. Killer displays all forms of pervasivity discussed in Chapter 1, including spatial, temporal and social expansions. 1 Games and Pervasive Games: There have been many definitions for pervasive games, and many names for this style of gaming. In this book we use a model based on magic circle discussed by Katie Salen and Eric Zimmerman; they discuss invasive games that penetrate the boundary of artificiality surrounding games. A model of three expansions is presented for analyzin the ways spatial, temporal and social boundaries of gameplay can be blurred. Pervasive games bring pleasure of game to everyday life and spice the game with unmitigated tangibility of the ordinary world.Case Study B: The Beast: The boom of alternate reality gaming started from an advertising
