Jesper Juul, video game academic and self-proclaimed “”http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ludology">ludologist", has written an article titled “”http://www.jesperjuul.net/text/swapadjacent/“>Swap Adjacent Gems to Make Sets of Three: A History of Matching Tile Games.”
I’m actually really fascinated by game studies. Actually, it’s more like I’m alternately fascinated and repulsed by game studies. It’s very interesting and there are real positive, tangible effects to analyzing games from an academic perspective. On the other hand, a lot of it is absolute baloney!
