Exhibition

Borders always surround us. They can be drawn or crossed. As we define them, they define us. The exhibition showcased works which approach this topic either as a medium – by breaking gameplay expectations or setting strict rules – or thematically, with natural, political and social borders as a narrative element of the game. Let’s dive into the unknown of faith, life and death! Discover and explore boundaries! And as some also challenge our own views, in the visual and mental sense, the question remains: Where does a game end, where does the real world begin?

Next to the core selection of the exhibition, attendees could also experience the Award Nominees and the games from the (canceled) physical "untouchable" exhibition, where we would have showcased games that can be played without touching them.

Every game was able to win the audience award, for which all attendees could vote! To view, play and vote on the games, they could visit the virtual festival location inside the A MAZE./ SPACE. Just want to take a peek? Watch channel 5 on the festival frontpage or scroll down to view the games and try their demos.
