Abstract:
In the video game industry, older adults tend to be avid consumers. Although considerable research has been devoted to the positive cognitive effects of video games, less attention has been paid to the older adult gamer profile. The aim of this paper is to describe a survey conducted from November 2012 until May 2013, which includes 245 gamers aged 50 and over, about their game preferences. Specifically, the authors examined: (a) what types of video games are played and (b) what leads these players to be engaged by video games. The results indicate that adventure games with problem-solving are

Abstract:
Because adventure games can be highly interactive and so absorbing that users commonly spend hours in a session, they are well suited to CALI, as long as the level of language on the screen is low enough and as long as the parser can recognize naturally-formed commands. This article attributes the success of the adventure format to the Input Hypothesis and the Affective Filter Hypothesis and sets up criteria for instructional evaluation of foreign language adventures.

Criteria for the selection of a computer adventure game were established following an investigation into students' use of computer adventure games in a secondary school. The development of one piece of educational software, based on these criteria, is described. The importance of improving educators' abilities to select appropriate software by the identification of appropriate criteria in a context-based evaluation is stressed in a time of devolution and fiscal restraint.

Abstract This paper discusses plot structures and characters of the The Walking Dead TV series which can be traced back to the influence of computer games and gameplay. It shall prove that the series’ narration as a transmedial phenomenon is characterised by ludic logic, although interactive aspects are omitted due to the intermedial change from games to a TV series. The characters’ twin layout as both civilised and archaic, the permanent necessity to make live-or-death decisions, as well as the struggle for survival, simulate aspects of adventure games in particular.

Abstract:
Video games are powerful narrative media that continue to evolve. Romance games in Japan, which began as text-based adventure games and are today known as bishōjo games and otome games, form a powerful textual corpus for literary and media studies. They adopt conventional literary narrative strategies and explore new narrative forms formulated by an interface with computer-generated texts and audiovisual fetishism, thereby challenging the assumptions about the modern textual values of storytelling.

This work undertakes a systematic study of various elements from differing fields which apply to the construction of computer-aided instructional systems. Drawing upon these works, the potential for instruction in computer adventure games is recognised, and previous work in the area analysed with respect to the theoretical findings. Based both on this theory and the germane advice of practicing game designers, a methodology for the design of educational computer adventure games is laid out in detail. The method described is then used to construct a sample game with basic programming skills as

In this paper, I survey past and present tools available to text adventure game authors, and then describe a new product: the Text Adventure Design Assistant (TA DA!), a visual programming system for creating text adventure games. My system consists of two parts: an abstract framework which defines an archetypical game, and a user interface which allows for the construction of games in a visual manner by manipulating the elements of the abstract game to produce a concrete design. The two most popular contemporary programming languages for creating text adventure games, TADS and Inform, are com

The thesis deals with the historical development of computer adventure games in the Czech Republic. It focuses on the period that started in 1994 with the production of the first commercial PC game Tajemství Oslího ostrova (The Secret of Donkey Island), and ended in 1998. It also touches an earlier period and factors that influenced the production of the adventure genre in the nineties. Researched titles belong to the genre of 2D point-and-click adventure.
