| dc.description.abstract | The present paper defines an original approach to
game analysis and design able to characterize a given game in a
simple, yet efficient, way. Inspired by models widely used across
the gaming industry, the proposed framework named A.G.E. is
built by defining and layering different concepts: core player
Actions, resulting Game-play and emotional Experience of
players. These are all linked to each other by the game's own
rules and goals to form a cohesive unit that can help in exposing
the inner workings of any game. The model is then elaborated
further into a regular grammar to provide a more formal and
rigorous justification of the proposed framework and overall
approach. | en_US |
