Recent development in game technologies has offered various game environments, but the existing games have not provided realistically felt game environments because the element of the game is virtually generated in most of the games. Therefore, we propose a mixed game environment based on spatial augmented reality by using a creature that really exists. In the proposed game environment, tracking based on camera images created in real-time enables the provision of information about the real creature that is both still and moving. The game environment is presented with virtual object by using the coordinate of a real creature. Then, spatial augmented reality technology is applied for mixing a real creature and virtual game elements. Thus, the game scene is displayed by the spatial augmented reality technique based on the real-time coordinate of real creatures. Moreover, by providing the realistic game environment based on the spatial augmented reality, our system can be applied to various game contents that are actually felt as real. Most importantly, our system arouses the players' interest in a new kind of game environment.

The social interest for collaborative learning and educational game has been increased. In this paper, we investigates the educational value of collaborative learning and game. Based on this investigation, we propose an educational on-line game model for collaborative learning. Although the proposed model is still conceptual design, it sufficiently shows that on-line RPG game can be a good collaborative learning method for young children. In detail, we speculate about the conventional educational method performed in normal school. And then, we describes the elements of a computer game which complies with the real collaborative learning program.

This paper proposes interactive game elements for children : contents, design, sound, gesture recognition, and speech recognition. Interactive games for early children must use the contents which reflect the educational needs and the design elements which are all bright, friendly, and simple to use. Also the games should consider the background music which is familiar with children and the narration which make easy to play the games. In gesture recognition and speech recognition, the interactive games must use gesture and voice data which hits to the age of the game user. Also, this paper introduces the development process for the interactive skipping game and applies the child-oriented contents, gestures, and voices to the game.

Recently game industry is emerging as a core of the domestic cultural contents by rapid development of IT technology and also the market scale has growing highly every year. Among various games, particularly the market ratio of MMORPG increases rapidly in domestic and oversea online game market. However it is true that the competition in the oversea market is too week for the investment to the MMORPG development efforts from the domestic game industry. Accordingly this paper collects the interests which players concern. Also this paper analyses and classifies design elements of successful MMORPGS as a way to obtain competition and shows a model in terms of game software qualify to be referred by MMORPG development organizations or companies.

The study is to explore the ways to design game characters according to the tendency of game users by classifying game users and analyzing the relation between user classes and their preferences towards game characters. The study examines various user classifications based on users' engagement levels, and designs a user questionnaire from them. Based on the result of questionnaire analysis, the study redefines user classes and applies the formal elements of character design to draw on the relationships between user classes and their preferences.

The augmented reality toy-game is a kind of new game genre that can be seen within the concept of augmented reality games, and it is a term to refer to the content or hardware that plays the game using the toy of the real world. This study aims to analyze the elements for the model of toy-game development based on the augmented reality. This study analyzed three characteristics of toy game which are different from other games based on existing related research. and have selected important factors to consider when developing augmented reality toy-game. A questionnaire was conducted to determine the suitability of the development elements derived, and the analysis and verification of the factors derived using an exploratory analysis method. As a result, it showed a reasonable outcome of the selection of variables, with the exception of some of the questions, and the classification results of the multi-dimensional scaling methods were also classified as reasonable in the clustering analyses.

The purpose of this study is to suggest ways to design gamification to improve the game and digital addiction. For the study, 782 of gmaification cases were collected and game mechanics and fun experience were analyzed by 4F process which is to design the effective gamification. To find the specific pattern, apriori algorithm, which is to find associated rules in transaction is applied to the 782 cases. According to the results, 63 of game mechanics associated rules are found. In the fun experience, 37 of associated rules are found. Based on the result, this study suggest the direction of gamification design for game and digital addiction improvement.

what is the elements letting users play games consistently other than the growth of the computer technology? What sort of elements can games give to control the balances in the various features of users? The subject of this study was set up for these questions. Examining the result of this study, the analysis of the types of individual characteristics as well as their preferences of playing games in the level of game design in the process of game development can be utilized as a fundamental data for the design of game contents based on user's propensity. Also it can provide the most effective method for controlling the balance of the game world. Moreover, it can be utilized to set up directions for updating the games based on user's propensity. If it can be counted for the potential users' preferences, the result of analysis of individual characteristic would act as good basic data for the balancing of game among various types of users.
