Whether they are providing new spaces to imagine and practice alternative forms of living, or reproducing ecomodernist fantasies, games as well as player cultures are increasingly tuned in to the most pressing environmental concerns. This book brings together chapters by a diverse group of established and emerging authors to develop a growing body of scholarship that explores the shape, impact, and cultural context of ecogames. The book comprises four thematic sections, Today's Challenges: Games for Change, Future Worlds: New Imaginaries, The Nonhuman Turn, and Critical Metagaming Practices. Each section explores different aspects of ecocritical engagement in and through games. As a result, the book's comprehensive scope covers a variety of angles, methodologies, and case studies, significantly expanding the field of green media studies. 410 0$aGreen Media Series 610 $aEcogames, games for change, future worlds, nonhuman epistemologies, metagaming practices. 700 $aop de Beke$b Laura$01588132 701 $aRaessens$b Joost$01588133 701 $aWerning$b Stefan$01588134 701 $aFarca$b Gerald$f1983-$01588592 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996580167803316 996 $aEcogames$93882521 997 $aUNISA
