  • Using Literary Theory to Read Games: Power, Ideology, and Repression in Atlus’ Growlanser: Heritage of War Johansen Quijano-Cruz Eludamos
    Vol. 2, No. 2 (2008) http:/www.eludamos.org Using Literary Theory to Read Games: Power, Ideology, and Repression in Atlus’ Growlanser: Heritage of War Johansen Quijano-Cruz Eludamos. Journal for Computer Game Culture. 2008; 2; 2; 161-168 Using Literary Theory to Read Games: Power, Ideology, and Repression in Atlus’ Growlanser: Heritage of War JOHANSEN QUIJANO-CRUZ For a long time game scholars have been arguing about video games and whether they are games, simulations, narratives, or something else. Today, at least 10 years after the debate began, there are still advocates for two major sides of the argument. Aarseth and other ludologists claim that the field of game studies is a new discipline that should be studied with its own theories, and that narrativists are simply attempting to colonize the growing field of game studies with literary theory and that games should be analyzed in terms of play and rules. On the other hand, compelling arguments have been made in favor of games being narratives to the extent that even Jesper Juul has acknowledged that games do use narratives. Aarseth and others have already published a large body of literature on how to analyze games using certain game-based approaches, and even carried out several analyses on specific video games. However, while all of the pro-narrativist approach arguments are certainly enlightening, and might give the creative mind some ideas, I have yet to read an actual article that applies literary theory to a video game. Furthermore, of the three major works that seem to attempt to apply a literary approach to games – Ian Bogost’s Persuasive Games, Hilde G.

This study combines emergent digital game theory with established literary theory about self-reflexive narrative (also known as ‘metafiction.’) This synthesis is further informed by observing first hand player interaction with self-reflexive gaming platforms.
