Our primary focus is aesthetic, cultural and communicative aspects of computer games, but any previously unpublished article focused on games and gaming is welcome. Proposed articles should be jargon-free, and should attempt to shed new light on games, rather than simply use games as metaphor or illustration of some other theory or phenomenon.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Frequency<\/strong>: 3\u20134 issues per year<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Launched<\/strong>: 2010<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Peer reviewed:<\/strong>&nbsp;yes, double-blind review<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Open access<\/strong>: yes<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Languages<\/strong>: English<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Genres<\/strong>: research article<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Length<\/strong>&nbsp;<strong>of research articles<\/strong>: max. 8,000 words (including endnotes)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Reference style<\/strong>: APA style<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Book reviews<\/strong>: no<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Publishers:<\/strong>&nbsp;Game Studies Foundation, with the support of the Swedish Research Council (Vetenskapsr\u00e5det), the Joint Committee for Nordic Research Councils for the Humanities and the Social Sciences (NOS-HS), Blekinge Institute of Technology,&nbsp;&nbsp;IT University of Copenhagen, and Lund University&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Venue of publication<\/strong>: Copenhagen<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Publication level<\/strong>: 2 in Finland, 1 in Norway<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Indexing<\/strong>: N\/A<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"spot-small spot-small--column-height spot-small--line bg-color--blue-light spot-small--blue\"><h3 class=\"spot-small__title text-color--blue\">Author Guidelines<\/h3><p class=\"spot-small__content\"><\/p><a class=\"spot-small__link\" href=\"https:\/\/gamestudies.org\/1803\/submission_guidelines\">Submission guidelines <i class=\"material-icons\">arrow_forward<\/i> <\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Games Studies \u2013 the International Journal of Computer Game Research is a cross-disciplinary peer-reviewed journal dedicated to the study of the cultural genre of games.
