The English book cover of Freedom, Oppression, Games & Play. It has a beige background with a controller D-pad in the middle, and jail-cel like bars running vertically up and down the cover. The D-pad is widening the bars in the middle, as if trying to escape. This book explores the complex relationship between freedom and oppression in games and play. Drawing from the 16th Vienna Games Conference "FROG - Future and Reality of Gaming" 2022, it features 24 contributions that delve into how artificial constraints within games reflect, reinforce, or challenge real-world issues of liberation and control. It examines how games can both mirror oppressive forces and offer opportunities for freedom, highlighting the intricate dynamics that shape political systems, social environments, and personal relationships.
598. FREEDOM | OPPRESSION | GAMES & PLAY
