“…While games like SUPER MARIO BROS. (1985), SUPER MEAT BOY (2010), or LIMBO ( 2010) present obstacles such as spikes, saw blades, or fire as harmful to the playable character, often diminishing their health pool or altogether negating progress in the game, THE MISSING subverts these genre expectations and extends the relationship between them and the playable character via one of the central game mechanics. 33,34,35 Colliding with an obstacle will result in various states of bodily harm for J.J. Running into spikes, for example, will result in dismemberment; touching fire will result in combustion; and being hit by a wrecking ball will give her a concussion, literally turning the world upside down. While in conventional titles such actions result in an automatic reload from a previous checkpoint or the loss of health points, THE MISSING makes damage necessary to game progression.…”

Digital Games, which takes place annually at the Technical University Cologne, is its fundamental principle: the dialectic of diversity and universality, coexistence, and cooperation. The research conference consists, to a part, of several specialized summits. The default subject areas are Game Studies, Game Design, and Media Education. Annually changing topical summits have investigated, e.g., game technologies, game entrepreneurship, or the relationship of games to music, film, and history. The diversity of themes ensures that specialists from very different disciplines and fields attend the Clash of Realities, academics as well as professionals, who otherwise hold their own conferences and rarely exchange ideas with each other.On the main day of the conference, this diversity merges into one room and one joint discussion. The encounter produces a productive clash of the many disciplines and cultures around digital games. Academics meet artists. Indie developers argue with industry representatives. Humanities scholars, social scientists, and computer scientists exchange experiences. Established experts and professionals discuss with students and games enthusiasts. Together, we assess and debate the artistic design, technological development, economic conditions, social perception, and cultural reception of digital games. This bridge-building fosters research and education as well as creative and professional practice. Year after year, the conference generates strong impulses and surprising synergies.The third indispensable element is the Young Academics Workshop (YAW). It brings together young researchers from all over the world and a wide range of educational levels-post-docs and doctoral candidates, master's students, and exceptionally talented bachelor's students. The workshops, focusing on changing topics, are always held as a prelude to the conference so that the young academics Academics Workshop from day one, we are grateful.
