Über STORY OF SEASONS: Friends of Mineral Town STORY OF SEASONS: Friends of Mineral Town ist ein komplettes Remake der 2003 veröffentlichten Farming-Simulation FRIENDS OF MINERAL TOWN für Game Boy Advance. Das Spiel führt Fans der Reihe zurück in die charmante Welt von Mineralstadt und stellt diese gleichzeitig einer neuen Generation von Farmern vor. In dieser friedlichen Szenerie ist es die Aufgabe der Spieler, allerlei Pflanzen zu kultivieren, für ihre Tiere zu sorgen und Beziehungen mit den Dorfbewohnern aufzubauen. Key-Features: ● Einen der beliebtesten Ableger von STORY OF SEASONS wiederentdecken: Das Remake für Nintendo Switch™ bewahrt das fesselnde Gameplay, die farbenfrohen Charaktere und den ländlichen Charme des originalen Game Boy Advance-Klassikers von 2003. Begleitet von butterweicher HD-Grafik und einer liebevollen Neugestaltung des ikonischen Schauplatzes, werden sich sowohl Serienkenner als auch Neulinge schnell vom lieblichen Treiben in Mineralstadt verzaubert fühlen. ● Ein einfaches Leben in Mineralstadt führen: Um der Farm ihres Großvaters neues Leben einzuhauchen und sich den Lebensunterhalt zu verdienen, machen sich Spieler die Kräfte der Natur zunutze, hegen ihre Pflanzen und ziehen Nutztiere groß. Mit mehr als 20 verschiedenen Nutzpflanzen, einer Vielzahl an Tieren – von Alpakas bis hin zu Angorakaninchen –, wechselnden Jahreszeiten und neuen Fertigkeiten gleicht kein Tag dem anderen. ● Freundschaften mit den Dorfbewohnern schließen: Mineralstadt beherbergt eine Fülle freundlicher Gesichter, die den Spielern dabei helfen, sich in ihrer neuen Heimatstadt einzuleben. In ihrem Alltag lernen Spieler die Dorfbewohner kennen und erfahren deren einzigartigen Geschichten – und vielleicht finden sie sogar die große Liebe! ● Reichlich Aktivitäten für freie Tage: Spannende Rennen auf dem Sattel eines Pferdes, die Jagd nach der beeindruckendsten Forelle und das Präsentieren der kulinarischen Kreativität sind nur einige der vielen Festivitäten im gefüllten Kalender, dank derer es nie langweilig in Mineralstadt wird. Wer es eher ruhiger haben möchte, kann in der örtlichen heißen Quelle entspannen, die Tiefen der Minen erforschen oder die saisonalen Geheimnisse der Stadt erkunden.

  • Jrpgs in Germany and Japan
    Exploring Cultural Differences in Game Reception: JRPGs in Germany and Japan Stefan Brückner1, Yukiko Sato1, Shuichi Kurabayashi2 and Ikumi Waragai1 Graduate School of Media and Governance, Keio University1 5322 Endo, Fujisawa, Kanagawa 252-0882 Japan +81-466-49-3404 [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Cygames Research2 16-17 Nanpeidai, Shibuya, Tokyo 150-0036 Japan +81-3-6758-0562 [email protected] ABSTRACT In this paper we present the first results of an ongoing research project, focused on examining the European reception of Japanese video games, and comparing it with the reception in Japan. We hope to contribute towards a better understanding of how players’ perception and evaluation of a game are influenced by their cultural background. Applying a grounded theory approach, we conducted a qualitative content analysis of articles from German video game websites, user comments, written in response to these articles, as well as Japanese and German user reviews from the respective Amazon online stores and Steam. Focusing on the reception of three Japanese RPGs, our findings show that considerable differences exist in how various elements of the games are perceived. We also briefly discuss certain lexical differences in the way players write about games, indicating fundamental differences in how Japanese and German players talk (and think) about games. Keywords Japanese games, reception, Germany, user reviews, QDA, grounded theory INTRODUCTION In recent years, there has been a rise in attempts to utilize the vast amounts of text on digital games available online, by using natural language processing (NLP) methods.

  • Graveyard Keeper's Dark Ecology
    COPAS—Current Objectives of Postgraduate American Studies Issue 22.1 (2021) “Like harvest moon, except I ate a guy:” Graveyard Keeper’s Dark Ecology Katie Deane ABSTRACT: This article argues that Lazy Bear Games’ Graveyard Keeper (2018) engages in a critical dialogue with the farm game genre by reformulating the nostalgic ideal as one mired in exploitation and the grotesque, thereby opening new and uncanny avenues through which to consider the farm game’s instrumentalizing premises. KEYWORDS: Dark Ecology; Video Games; Farm Simulation; Uncanny; Graveyard Keeper Introduction On an average day, I wake up, equip my watering can, and get to work tending my crops before heading to the barn to check that there’s sufficient feed for my animals. I brush my cows, who communicate their appreciation by producing a red heart in the speech bubble that appears over their heads. Before long, I’m out on the road to gather wildflowers, critters, rocks, and logs, which I’ll drop into my shipping box before turning in. Overnight, these things will be sold for a few hundred “G”—nothing compared to the payout when my corn is ready to harvest in two days (which is to say, within the hour). But first, another day of work beckons. This is Harvest Moon: The Tale of Two Towns (Marvelous Interactive), though it could easily be another game from the Harvest Moon series or in the genre of farm management simulation more widely, including the incredibly popular Stardew Valley (ConcernedApe).1 Clearly, the gameplay I have just described bears little resemblance to the exploitative system of industrial agriculture that produces most of the food U.S.

  • Week 2: Game Theory // History & Origins // Industry Stats
    NMED 3300(A) // Theory and Aesthetics of Digital Games Friday Genre Discussions / Play Sessions Schedule, Spring 2016 Mondays and Wednesdays will consist of lectures. Fridays will be broken into two sessions. The first will take place in W866 where we will discuss particular genres and look at select examples. The second session will take place in W560 and will consist of hands-on gameplay (1 hour) of the games covered earlier in class. Some Rules for W560 Usage: 1. Please be considerate of others in the lab and those working in adjacent offices/classrooms by keeping noise to a minimum, 2. Please note that food and drink are not allowed in W560, except water if it is contained in a non-spillable container (with a screw-top or sealable cap) 3. Only students with official access are allowed in these labs (you cannot bring friends into the lab, sorry), 4. Please be gentle with equipment, consoles, and peripherals as a lot of the equipment is David’s personal property and much of the equipment is old and getting more difficult (if not impossible) to replace. 5. Finally, do not leave discs in consoles and make sure consoles and televisions are turned off when you are finished and that the area where you were working is clean and tidy. Notes on Gameplay Sessions in W560: Please keep the volume of the monitors and verbalizations to a minimum. Have a look at each of the games listed for that week’s gameplay sessions by consulting reviews/criticism, gameplay video, screenshots. As many games are released on multiple platforms and are often emulated, make sure you are viewing information for the correct version (platform, year).

  • History of Video Games-Wikipedia
    History of video games From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Atari VCS was a popular home video game console in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Pictured is the four-switch model from 1980–1982. An Atari CX40 joystick controller, with a single button The history of video games goes as far back as the early 1950s, when academic computer scientists began designing simple games and simulations as part of their research or just for fun. At M.I.T. in the 1960s, professors and students played games such as 3D tic-tac-toe and Moon Landing. These games were played on computer such as the IBM 1560, and moves were made by means of punch cards. Video gaming did not reach mainstream popularity until the 1970s and 1980s, when video arcade games and gaming consoles using joysticks, buttons, and other controllers, along with graphics on computer screens and home computer games were introduced to the general public. Since the 1980s, video gaming has become a popular form of entertainment and a part of modern popular culture in most parts of the world. One of the early games was Spacewar!, which was developed by computer scientists. Early arcade video games developed from 1972 to 1978. During the 1970s, the first generation of home consoles emerged, including the popular game Pong and various "clones". The 1970s was also the era of mainframe computer games. The golden age of arcade video games was from 1978 to 1982. Video arcades with large, graphics- decorated coin-operated machines were common at malls and popular, affordable home consoles such as the Atari 2600 and Intellivision enabled people to play games on their home TVs.
