About Playable Frontier

An independent publication on games, AI, and interaction design.

Playable Frontier covers games, AI, and interaction design. We read papers, look at games and tools, and write about questions worth discussing.

What we cover

We write about game design and the research behind interactive systems. Articles explain how an idea works and link to the sources so readers can take a closer look.

How we edit

We check sources before publication and review the English and Chinese text separately. Findings are distinguished from interpretation. If we get something wrong, we correct it and explain what changed.
