  • In this paper, we developed a board game prototype, which is a trading card game (TCG) based on near field communication (NFC), in order to compare the convenience between an analog style board game and its corresponding digitalized board game based on NFC. Especially we try to maintain the advantages of an analog style board game such as social fellowship and communication skill in developing its corresponding digitalized TCG game. 20 players participated in our experiments, and each team consists of 2 payers. After they play an analog card game and its corresponding digitalized card game, they answer our survey questionnaires. We can confirm that the NFC TCG offers more convenience to players than its corresponding analog card game according to survey results.

  • A smart robot game, which is one of the new type expanding the market through coding education classes recently, has a characteristic to manipulate digital games with a smart-phone while using a robot instead of existing games. Under the same rules, the virtual world's game is connected to real world's robot through a smart-phone, and the game is played while exchanging data. This study analyzes smart robot game by dividing them into media features, digital game features, and playful features. In addition, we developed the game based on the board game genre that has the general rules while using the derived development features. As a result, by presenting the case of development of smart robot board game, we would like to propose the points to be considered in the development of smart robot game.

  • This study verified the effects of promoting optimism by utilizing communication board games with university students. Since optimism is closely related to grade, self-efficacy, a sense of achievement, the importance of enhancing optimism was emphasized. This study seeks to investigate practical measures that can promote optimism utilizing games in a more casual environment based on the research of Seligman(1990), which claimed that the optimism can be learned regardless of temperaments. In Study1, the level of optimism increased from M=-4.7(t1) to M=12.8 in t2(p<.001). In Study2, a control group(n=22) was added with the experiment group(n=21). The level of optimism increased from M=-2.4(t1) to M=11.5(t2) in the experiment group(p<.001), whereas there was no difference in the control group.

  • This study aims to investigate the safety instrument to prepare the policy alternative for social web-board game which will be developed to base on social network in the future although social casino game is not available in Korea now. We reviewed several literature about responsible game system applied to especially U.S. New Jersey, responsible gambling system acted in the being advanced all countries. Game experts built up user protection model as previous work to prepare the law and policy which such a responsible game system will apply for current web-board gaem and future social casino game. As a result, this research revealed that standard of judgement which can identify four kind of addiction danger user group are raised. We expect to help this user protection alternative to provide the law and policy instrument for future social casino game and complement the problem of current web-board enforcement.

  • This paper describes a game called the "robot hopscotch game" which uses mobile robots. In this game, a mobile robot moves on a board which consists of a number of square cells. This is similar to the usual hopscotch game in which a human player hops through a course on the ground. In the robot hopscotch game, each cell has a visual light communication unit. The unit sends identification signal and the robot which moves over the cell receives the signal for location recognition. In the game, a human player or a human operator competes with a robot or other human player on how accurately and fast they move to a goal location passing through the given way point cells. People played the game at the RoboWorld 2008 which was held at COEX Seoul, on 16th to 20th of October 2008. The replies to the questionnaire to the users show that users have interests on the game and expect further expansion of robot use though they are not in favor of the robot's outlook and they feel inconvenience on manipulation of the robot.

  • This paper proposed a method which enabled the designing and implementation of a serious game based on AVR microcontroller on a virtual serial port before making the actual circuit by performing simulation, and which made it possible to develop a serious game. The implemented serious game implemented a mole game which can be enjoyed by one person, a love game with which a male gamer and a female gamer can play, and a marathon game in which a gamer can run the marathon while listening to cheerful music and looking at a region he/she wants to visit. The development of a microcontroller device that provides those functions showed that not only does the device make it possible to develop games more easily and conveniently through the implementation of a game using virtual serial communications with a board designed by an ISIS simulator, but also it reduces trials and errors during game development.
