Gaming Utopia
- A strong contribution to IU Press's offering in digital game and media studies by an up-andcoming scholar. - Focuses on a global collection of digital games made by non-western countries and native communities to challenge the narratives about gaming as white, heterosexual, male, corporatized leisure-time activity. - Explores games as cites for social protest and connects well with previous IU Press titles, such as Gaming Representation. - Written in accessible language, this book will have appeal in undergraduate courses in game studies and game design.
