ABSTRACT
In this study, we measured attention levels to identify points of high player interest in linear single player FPS games. Our results suggest that further analysis of these points could lead to a better understanding of player interest and how to design interesting encounters in games.

Analyzing n-player impartial games
AbstractCombinatorial game theory is the study of two player perfect information games. While work has been done in the past on expanding this field to include n-player games we present a unique method which guarantees a single winner. Specifically our ...
n-Player impartial combinatorial games with random players
In this paper we develop a method of analyzing n-player impartial combinatorial games where n - 1 players behave optimally while one of the players plays randomly. More specifically, we develop a function g r that maps impartial combinatorial games to n-...
