Title: Critical Gameplay Exhibit: April 17th, 2009 Post by: CriticalGameplay on April 10, 2009, 08:45:13 AM Critical Gameplay is a collection of strategically designed video games. Each game asks the question, what do common game mechanics teach us? Each of the games in the collection are designed to help reevaluate our perspective on gameplay experiences. Critical gameplay seeks to offer alternate perspectives on the way we play.
The Exhibition: Several video games will be displayed for visitors to play on multiple stations. Each games evaluates a specific gameplay standard and actively works against it. The hope is the initiation of an intellectual dialogue about the opportunities in unexplored gameplay mechanics. The exhibition will also include other video games and interactive works created by Lindsay Grace. The exhibition is open to the public and will be held for one night on April 17th, 6:30 pm – 10:00 pm. • Location: 1100 West Cermak (enter at 2268 S. Carpenter / Gate A), Chicago, Illinois, USA • Time: 6:30pm - 10:00pm • Cost: Free (Open to the public) • Contact: [email protected] Free beer, wine and refreshments will be served.

Title: Re: Critical Gameplay Exhibit: April 17th, 2009 Post by: agj on April 10, 2009, 02:44:07 PM I find it comical that you don't say what city or country the exhibition is being held at in the website itself. You might want to fix that.
Sounds like an interesting research and exercise. Wait looks like a game I'd enjoy playing. Charity was a bit terrible, due to the controls, and also not quite as intriguing as the rest of the games, by their description. I don't live in the US, so I can't attend the exhibition, but I'd love it if you made all the games available for download.

Anyone have a couch in Chicago? Title: Re: Critical Gameplay Exhibit: April 17th, 2009 Post by: TheBlackMask on April 10, 2009, 07:39:15 PM My couch is always available to TIGers.
