The article describes the revised and expanded version of the empirical Gameplay Enjoyment Model (GEM) and has been published in the International Journal of Gaming and Computer-Mediated Simulations (IJGCMS). This article also discusses educational game design and research opportunities related to the GEM components of Challenge, Companionship, Competition, Exploration, Fantasy, and Fidelity. Abstract To date, […]

ANGLE members Quick, Lin, and Atkinson have produced multiple publications on the topic of gameplay enjoyment, game design, and individual characteristics. This work has lead to the development of the Gameplay Enjoyment Model (GEM), which is being further developed by John M. Quick (you can read more about GEM at www.johnmquick.com). Information on the latest publications in […]
