This is a huge & rapidly growing field of inquiry within #gamestudies, albeit one yet to make huge impacts on #historygames studies.
The paper is my attempt to bridge the gap, offering some thoughts on how to bring debates about the more-than-human into historical discussions 3/6

If you need evidence that the HGN blog is the place to go for quality #historygames writing, look no further than this piece.
Absolutely fantastic dive on the complexities of video game time - even in historical games that may look very simple on the outset.

Looks interesting! The focus on environmental costs as an inherent part of (virtual) statecraft sounds particularly timely.
Plus, if the thesis is half as funny & articulated as this thread, it should be a joy to read!

That's a top-tier list of contributors tackling a subject of immense relevance to #historygames and #archaeogaming
I already had the pleasure of watching a version of May & Manning's paper at a conference & can attest it's gold. Very eager to check out the rest!

Inspired by an old Osprey Illustrated Military Diary, I consider the possibility of running a historical #wargame each week, coinciding with a notable event one could explore through simulation...including event and game suggestions.

This was one of the most rewarding and unusual (in a good way!) conversations about #historygames that I had recently.
And Part 2 gets ever weirder and deeper into philosophy of history. Super excited to share it with you.

O evento ocorrerá nos dias 8 a 12 de dezembro de 2025, em formato online via YouTube, no período norturno (18h às 21h, horário de Brasília) Tópicos incluem (mas não estão restritos a): Archaeogaming e Idade Média Representações de arqueólogos em jogos medievalistas Arqueologia de espaços virtuais Modelagem 3D e criação de assets para jogos Cultura material da Idade Média em jogos digitais A Idade Média em jogos analógicos Medievalismo e roleplay Uso de jogos para o ensino de história ou educação patrimonial Simulações analíticas Realidade virtual/aumentada e o passado medieval Materialidade de jogos medievalistas Usos políticos e ideológicos da cultura material em jogos medievalistas Olhares decoloniais/anti-eurocêntrico sobre a arqueologia digital e jogos medievais Para mais informações ou eventuais dúvidas, favor escrever ao Dr. Vinicius Marino Carvalho no email midagesmodgames@gmail.com Favor enviar título e resumo da apresentação por meio do link: https://sinsc.furg.br/fichainscricao/7823 Esperamos ansiosamente sua participação!

The Middle Ages in Modern Games conference, the Federal University of Rio Grande (FURG), and the research society ARISE (Interactive Archaeology and Electronic Simulations) are pleased to announce a thematic strand at the I Brazilian Conference on Digital Archaeology. Archaeogaming and medievalist game studies have enjoyed noteworthy popularity since the past decade. On the one hand, practitioners of medieval history and archaeology have started to devise methodologies to integrate games as research outputs and vehicles for outreach. On the other hand, game studies experts have acknowledged the importance of archaeology to deal with the material dimension of games and the human experiences within virtual spaces. We invite students, researchers and professionals working with medieval archaeology and related fields to submit proposals for oral communications exploring these themes. The event will be held online and broadcasted via YouTube between 8-12 December, from 6 to 9pm (UTC -3). Topics include (but are not restricted to) Archaeogaming and the Middle Ages Depictions of archaeologists in medievalist games The archaeology of virtual environments 3D modeling and asset creation for games. Medieval material culture in modern games The Middle Ages in analog games Medievalism and roleplay Games as tools for history teaching and heritage education Virtual/augmented reality and the medieval past The materiality of medievalist games Political and ideological uses of material culture in medievalist games Decolonial/Anti-eurocentric approaches to digital archaeology and medievalist games For more information or questions, please contact Dr. Vinicius Marino Carvalho at midagesmodgames@gmail.com Submissions are open until the 5th of November via the following link: https://sinsc.furg.br/fichainscricao/7823 We hope to see you there!
We're pleased to announce we're putting together a thematic strand at the 1st Brazilian Conference on Digital Archaeology, organized by @archarise.bsky.social.

Screenshot from the videogame Hellclock. It features a monstrous version of Col. Moreira César (aka "The Beheader"), a Brazilian officer who fought and died in the Canudos War. He says "It is hard to believe a traitor like you once served our glorious army"
Screenshot from the videogame Hellclock. Protagonist Pajeú is talking to the ghost of Col. Moreira César, "The Beheader". The colonel says "There wasn't a single brave Canudense (i.e. a person from Canudos) when my saber tore through their carcass."
Screenshot from the videogame Hellclock, showing the inventory. An excerpt from Euclides da Cunha's "The Backlands" is featured as flavor text
Now playing 'Hellclock' from @hellclockgame.bsky.social , a fantasy take on the Canudos War.
Flavor texts taken from primary/secondary sources, inc. Euclides da Cunha's "Rebellion in the Backlands"
Props to Col. Moreira César, who is positively terrifying as the Beheader.

Amigos do #archaeogaming, #historygames e #gamestudies: fiquem de olho!
(Obs: estou focando em games porque esta é a minha sardinha; o congresso é aberto a métodos digitais na arqueologia como um todo)

An infographic showing our three main characters you can choose from at the beginning of a playthrough - the drake, the guivre and the wyrm. The drake is a quadruped dragon with tiny wings, the guivre is a bipedal critter with a rat's tail, a bird's beak and fluttery wings, and the wyrm is a serpentine creature with two legs and a fierce scowl. Above the characters, there's a banner reading: "WyrmSaga goes Gamescom!" Below the characters, there's a white box with our Borb Games logo, reading: "Meet us at the Hessen Booth in Hall 4.1, Row D, #060G with Artex or Reach out directly!"
We're going to be in Cologne from August 18th-22nd for #devcom & #gamescom to show our brand new trailer around. If you're interested in catching up, let's meet!
We are looking to connect with fellow indies, influencers & history nerds!
