    EUROCENTRIC VALUES AT PLAY MODDING THE COLONIAL FROM THE INDIGENOUS PERSPECTIVE RHETT LOBAN AND THOMAS APPERLEY Indigenous people and cultures are rarely included in digital games, and if they are it is often in a rather thoughtless manner. The indigenous peoples and cultures of many parts of the world have been portrayed in digital games in several ways that show little respect or understanding of the important issues these populations face. For example, in the Australian-made Ty the Tasmanian Tiger (Electronic Arts, 2002), Australian Aboriginal people are completely absent, replaced by anthropomorphized indigenous animals some of whom wear traditional face paint, while the plot involves rescuing other animals from the “dreamtime.” So while a secularized white settler version of Aboriginal culture is a core part of the game, the people are absent. The controversial mobile game Survival Island 3: Australia Story (NIL Entertainment, 2015), was removed from the Google Play and Apple stores in January 2016, largely because of an online petition that was concerned the game encouraged violence against indigenous Australians. The game portrayed Aboriginal people as “savages” who contributed to the difficulty of surviving in the Australian outback. Other games have appropriated indigenous iconography and culture, like Mark of Kri (Sony Computer Entertainment, 2002) which used traditional Māori (the indigenous people of Aotearoa/New Zealand) facial tattoo or Tā moko on characters in the game. These examples are disappointing, and seem to represent a common 1 occurrence in commercial non-indigenous media. However, there have also recently been a number of critically acclaimed commercial gaming projects which deal with indigenous culture and issues from an indigenous perspective, for example the game Never Alone/Kisima Inŋitchuŋa (E-Line Media, 2014), made by Upper One Games in partnership with 2 Alaska’s Cook Inlet Tribal Council.

  • The History of Educational Computer Games
    Beyond Edutainment Exploring the Educational Potential of Computer Games By Simon Egenfeldt-nielsen Submitted to the IT-University of Copenhagen as partial fulfilment of the requirements for the PhD degree February, 2005 Candidate: Simon Egenfeldt-Nielsen Købmagergade 11A, 4. floor 1150 Copenhagen +45 40107969 [email protected] Supervisors: Anker Helms Jørgensen and Carsten Jessen Abstract Computer games have attracted much attention over the years, mostly attention of the less flattering kind. This has been true for computer games focused on entertainment, but also for what for years seemed a sure winner, edutainment. This dissertation aims to be a modest contribution to understanding educational use of computer games by building a framework that goes beyond edutainment. A framework that goes beyond the limitations of edutainment, not relying on a narrow perception of computer games in education. The first part of the dissertation outlines the background for building an inclusive and solid framework for educational use of computer games. Such a foundation includes a variety of quite different perspectives for example educational media and non-electronic games. It is concluded that educational use of computer games remains strongly influenced by educational media leading to the domination of edutainment. The second part takes up the challenges posed in part 1 looking to especially educational theory and computer games research to present alternatives. By drawing on previous research three generations of educational computer games are identified. The first generation is edutainment that perceives the use of computer games as a direct way to change behaviours through repeated action. The second generation puts the spotlight on the relation between computer game and player.

  • Periodization in Civilization V and Europa Universalis IV
    Loading… The Journal of the Canadian Game Studies Association Vol 10(17): 60-76 http://loading.gamestudies.ca Simulating the Ages of Man: Periodization in Civilization V and Europa Universalis IV Greg Koebel University of Regina [email protected] Abstract This article, through an examination of the historical arguments embedded in two historical strategy games, Civilization V and Europa Universalis IV, argues that historical strategy games present players with sophisticated models of historical change, in particular how time can be divided into periods, and historians with opportunities to revisit historiographical questions about periodization from perspectives unavailable through textual academic history. Both Civilization V and Europa Universalis IV present an opportunity to examine a familiar concept, periodization, through the new lens of digital simulation. Author Keywords Periodization; historical strategy games; historiography; modding communities Introduction For historians and historical video game designers alike the division of historical time into “ages” or “eras” is a useful, even necessary exercise. For historians, such divisions provide coherence, structure, and narrative to an otherwise continuous flow of human experience. For designers of historical games, such periodization makes change over time easier to represent in the rational world of the game code. Although historians and game designers have different reasons for adopting the technique of periodization, both by necessity engage with the same historiographical arguments about periodization (and by extension engage their readers and players in those arguments). Civilization V and Europa Universalis IV, two historical strategy games, present conceptions of periodization and change over time which derive from both historiographical tradition and the rational necessities of the game algorithm.

  • Virtual Unaustralia: Videogames and Australia's Colonial History
    Virtual Unaustralia: Videogames and Australia’s Colonial History Thomas H. Apperley PhD Candidate Media and Communications Program University of Melbourne In August 2006 the Games Lab at ACMI (the Australian Centre for the Moving Image) in Melbourne hosted an exhibition ‘Best of the Independent Games Festival 2006’; among the games featured was Braid (Number None Inc., game still in development).1 This game was noted for its clever examination of the platform genre, a genre of videogame2 closely associated with Nintendo games like Super Mario Brothers (Nintendo, 1985) and Super Mario 64 (Nintendo EAD, 1996). The focus of the game was to explore the flow of time, by allowing players to rewind the game – in a manner similar to that explored in a more limited fashion in UbiSoft’s Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time (2003) – they could ‘explore alternate approaches and differing causes and effects’ (Best of Independent Games Festival, 2006). Braid’s examination of this genre of videogames parallels this paper’s concern with how time, and cause and effect, are presented in another prominent genre of videogames: the historic strategy genre. The use of the time rewind function in Braid creates potential for multiple readings of the game, and allows the player to shift between – and play with – temporal perspectives: what is at stake in this game is a detailed analysis of what could otherwise be regarded as an outdated genre. Currently the platform genre is enjoying a renaissance in appreciation through its remediation to mobile consoles and telephones; however, it is widely regarded as having had a peak of popularity during the eighties and early nineties.
