Choose your Player. Gaming from Dice to Pixel
Escapism, striving for success, exploration: why, how or within which contexts do people play, how are they played and how are protagonists portrayed in games? The exhibition Choose your Player. Gaming from Dice to Pixel at the Zeppelin Museum Friedrichshafen explores the phenomenon of games as a cultural medium for escaping the present and immersion.
