The 2026 edition will focus on the scientific rigor of the domain of Gaming and Simulation, and will dive deeper into the scientific grounds of the method, beyond the utilitarian level. At the same time, the number of crises and systemic relationships between these call for a re-emergence of the urgent needs for and development of gaming and simulation methodology as a new wave of the 1970’s and 1990’s steps forward.
The conference will build on the recent papers from the ISAGA Special Interest Group on Game Science, which defined the framework of a Game Science and addressed the ontological and epistemological levels of gaming and simulation. At the conference, we invite senior and junior scholars to engage in meaningful discussions and further definition of this framework towards the broader body of methodological knowledge that exists within ISAGA.
