Three years ago ↑Anja Rau wrote: “Look at your map of European Game Studies. Is there a white space south of Denmark? There needn’t be. Over the past two years, game studies initiatives have sprung up in Germany, too, and the rate of activities is accelerating.” (↵Rau 2004) Just last year ↑Klaus P. Jantke founded a group called ↑Digital Games Science at ‘Xing’ (formerly known as ‘OpenBC’)—now there is the start-up of an e-journal called ↑games science as well. My fear is that an overview of all the German academical endeavours concerning computergames will very soon be quite difficult to do.
