Exploring the limits and margins of game cultural participation and agency
In the ENDGAME project, funded by the Research Council of Finland 2025–2029, we investigate how individuals gain access to and are able to operate in game cultural environments in an impactful manner – or are excluded or limited in their capacity – based on their individual backgrounds. ENDGAME’s overall aim is to reform the current scientific understanding of game cultural participation and agency and how intersecting identity positions affect them in specific local contexts.
