"Gaming the Apocalypse"
While thousands of enthusiastic players are gathering annually at the Game City in the Vienna City Hall, the international conference "FROG - Future and Reality of Gaming" invites to an academic discourse on the subject of games and play. This year the conference is dedicated to connections between play & games, crisis and hope, and invites game scholars, creators, educators, students, activists and enthusiasts from around the globe to come together and reflect on the apocalypse through a lens of games & play.
Invited keynote speakers are Dawn Stobbart (Lancester University) and Josh Sawyer (Director at Obsidian Entertainment; responsible e.g. for Fallout: New Vegas). Furthermore, there will be over 30 talks by international speakers and two exciting panel discussions.
The programme is available on the conference website: https://www.frogvienna.at/frog-2024-programme/
