Abstract:
This work proposes a taxonomical study of action in videogames. It studies typologic models, selected from popular, game design and academic discourse. It underlines the importance of action in video games and how it is a fundamental mechanical concept in the gameplay experience. It then proposes a structural typological model based in the mechanics of the video game’s action, a model that, although functioning autonomously, can also be articulated with the model developed by espen Aarseth, Solveig Marie Smedstad and Lise Sunnana in "A multidimensional typology of games" (2003).
