Manchester Game Studies Network co-director, Chloé Germaine, will be giving her paper on contemporary horror roleplaying games and the environment at GENeration Analog on the 5th August, 2021.

‘The forest doesn’t want you there: an ecocritical reading of contemporary horror roleplaying games’ explores contemporary horror roleplaying games through the lens of eco-criticism to explore how play negotiates the climate crisis.
