Why did games become central audiovisual form of expression and narrative in digital culture? How did practical methods of their production emerge? How did scientific researches of the meaning of this new media and its impact upon society develop? Addressing these fundamental issues and aspects of the digital game culture, Gundolf S. Freyermuth describes the stages of media-historical development of analogue and digital games, history and aesthetic practices of game design, scientific approaches and the questions that are central for game researches. The book will certainly be of special interest for all those who create, develop and promote games, for programmers and for all fans of games in any of their various forms.
