<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>How can videogames portray love and loss? <em>Games and Bereavement</em> answers this question by analyzing five videogames and conducting a participatory design study with grievers. Sabine Harrer offers both theoretical and practical perspectives on videogames and grief and suggests a design model for videogames to include grievers into game development. Overall, she explores how videogames can be used as a contemporary medium for personal storytelling.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Sabine Harrer teaches game design at the University for Art and Design (BTK) in Berlin.
