Game Classification

Game Classification is a brand that focuses on providing a comprehensive and unified classification system for video games. With the aim of addressing the limitations of existing classification systems, Game Classification takes an academic approach to create a classification system that is suited for all released video games. The brand recognizes that the evolution of video games introduces new categories and changes definitions, making it challenging to establish a universally recognized classification system.

To tackle this problem, Game Classification proposes a multi-criteria based system. This system considers gameplay, purpose, market, target audience, and user-contributed keywords to classify each game into an overall category. The brand's website features data sheets with classification-related information for as many games as possible, and it also provides search engines based on the specified criteria.

Game Classification is a collaborative online tool where user contributions play a crucial role in the classification of new games and updating data for previously classified games. The brand is the result of an academic research project conducted by Ludoscience. One of the key criteria used in this classification system is gameplay.

Recognizing gameplay as the most complex and interesting aspect of video games, the brand emphasizes the importance of understanding the core rules that define the gameplay experience. Through an analysis based on a study, Game Classification identifies a limited set of core rules that represent the gameplay essence of each title. Overall, Game Classification is dedicated to providing a comprehensive and informative classification system for video games, taking into account various criteria and user contributions to ensure a more accurate and inclusive categorization
