    Digital Heroes: Identity Construction in Iranian Video Games

  • Original language description

    This chapter analyses contemporary Iranian video games and explores how they communicate different concepts of identity to players in multiple ways. It is based on content analyses of more than 20 games developed in Iran between 2005 and 2011 and interviews with major Iranian game producers. Substantive portions of the materials reviewed in this chapter were gathered during a fieldwork trip to Tehran in 2008 and many of the games that were then in production were obtained for analysis later on. The interviews were made in Farsi and/or English in November 2008.
