Classism and games
Workshop
In this workshop, Verena Brakonier and Benjamin Heinemann will address the topic of classism and games, based on Verena's game-based work Gläserne Decke #unten. Together the participants will explore how games can represent social inequalities. After an introduction and a short game session in which unequal starting conditions and opportunities are visualized, ideas for critical game design will be collected. The concepts will then be implemented directly on the console using Super Mario Maker 2.
To reserve a place in the workshops and training courses, it is necessary to contact us in advance by e-mail welcome@playfestival.de or via Discord #registrations. Any remaining places available will be allocated on site at short notice.
