" Alternate Reality Games and the Cusp of Digital Gameplay is a rabbit hole into a wondrous world where everything we encounter is playable, every problem demands extreme-scale collaboration, and every story is open to co-creation. In this world, the virtual games we play threaten -- or promise? -- to blur the boundaries of our real lives and even become our lives. The volume is nothing less than a definitive history and the most significant theoretical examination yet of the strangest happenings in the most transgressive and personally transformative genre of games to emerge in our connected age. Don't forget: In an alternate reality, anything and everything might be a clue to something bigger -- including, yes, of course! the very pages in this book. Happy playing! And keep your eyes open for clues..." - Jane McGonigal, Alternate Reality Game Creator and author of Reality is Broken "A well-researched and in-depth collection. Especially useful as a retrospective and case study of ARGs' first decade." - Steve Peters, Founder/Chief Creative Officer, No Mimes Media, USA " Alternate Reality Games and the Cusp of Digital Gameplay provides a timely critical exploration the histories, terminologies, and tropes of the genre. Bringing together theory and example, with contributions from some of the foremost researchers in the field, this volume represents an essential overview of the scholarly state-of-the-art in alternate reality gaming." - Nicola Whitton, Professor of Professional Learning, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK "Alternate Reality Games (ARGs) are notoriously hard to define; luckily this new collection grapples with their complexities with a playful and scholarly approach. Using interdisciplinary perspectives, the contributors show how ARGs provide insight into humanity, reality, play, and what it means to have fun." - Karen Schrier, Assistant Professor and Director of Games & Emerging Media, Marist College, USA, and author of Knowledge Games (2016), A well-researched and in-depth collection. Especially useful as a retrospective and case study of ARGs' first decade.

Synopsis
Alternate Reality Games (ARGs) challenge what players understand as "real.+? Alternate Reality Games and the Cusp of Digital Gameplay is the first collection to explore and define the possibilities of ARGs. Though prominent examples have existed for more than two decades, only recently have ARGs come to the prominence as a unique and highly visible digital game genre. Adopting many of the same strategies as online video games, ARGs blur the distinction between real and fictional.With ARGs continuing to be an important and blurred space between digital and physical gameplay, this volume offers clear analysis of game design, implementation, and ramifications for game studies. Divided into three distinct sections, the contributions include first hand accounts by leading ARG creators, scholarly analysis of the meaning behind ARGs, and explorations of how ARGs are extending digital tools for analysis. By balancing the voices of designers, players, and researchers, this collection highlights how the Alternate Reality Game genre is transforming the ways we play and interact today., Alternate Reality Games (ARGs) challenge what players understand as "real."

- e***_ (17)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufSeller handles a massive inventory so I give them grace on the slow processing and shipping. They were very communicative and prompt with their response when I messaged in asking about it. Book was in good condition as described. Small ding on the page edges which wasn't mentioned, but that's fairly common even at your typical book store. Still a good value and I'd buy from them again.
- 0***i (5)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThe first item arrived with some damage to the inside back cover, but the seller responded immediately, assuring me they’d provide a replacement, and even told me I could keep the original. They were upfront about a short delay, and gave a clear estimated ship date, and followed up right on time once it shipped. The replacement arrived in perfect condition and exactly as described. I really appreciated their transparency and professionalism. Would definitely buy from them again!
