INTRODUCTION TO GAME STUDIES
Mariana Amaro, Suely Fragoso
The association between games and childhood is a thing of the past. In recent years, increasingly sophisticated and complex digital and board games have demonstrated the importance of adult audiences in a market that generates billions of dollars worldwide. Games are now prominent on store and bookstore shelves, in libraries, bars, newspapers, magazines, and on television. The academic world is also paying attention to this phenomenon, closely following the growing number of people who play games, the diversification of their profiles, and the role of the gaming industry in the cultural, political, and economic landscape. At the heart of all these interests are the games themselves, which have finally earned their place as an object of scientific study.
