Call for Participation: Roleplaying Game Studies Handbook – A Workshop @ DiGRA 2013 The study of roleplaying games has remained a small and somewhat separate tradition within game studies writ large. Yet roleplaying games arguably defined and influenced many design elements of today’s digital games, and constitute a formational experience for many influential digital game designers. More importantly, the peculiarities of non-digital roleplaying games as a socially shared effort of imagination, storytelling, simulation, and gaming have generated insights that have much to offer to the wider field of game studies. Unfortunately, most publications in the field of roleplaying game studies…
