ref. A9780226840703Hardback. New. Can a game take care of us And do we want it to Animal Crossing: New Horizons was released on March 20 2020—just as a pandemic kept many from family work restaurants and the rest of their regularly scheduled lives. At its height the game averaged one million copies sold per day as players sought comfort escape and a virtual means of connection. In this book game scholar Noah Wardrip-Fruin isolated with his family by both lockdown and disability explores the power of this game and the mixed emotions of a player and a parent trying to make it from one day to the next—while his kids’ obsession with Animal Crossing creates conflicts between them and pushback against family rules. Wardrip-Fruin helps both Animal Crossing fans and newcomers understand the unexpected beneath the game’s surface: like the story of the first Animal Crossing codesigned by an absent father seeking connection; like the hallmarks of video game manipulation from “streak” bonuses to game-determined playtimes; like the appeal of endless shopping in a kind of “safe” capitalism; and of course like the character quirks of a raccoon dog Tom Nook who provides a world of both safety and strange paternalism. For many this blockbuster game offered a comforting world compared to a reality of danger. In this first entry in the Replay series Wardrip-Fruin offers an absorbing investigation of a game’s role in contemporary social life and a book that belongs on the shelf of anyone who loves or is puzzled by this Nintendo sensation. hardcover

Desperate parents look for something anything to stop the madness. At the Float Anxiety Abasement Center in a suburb of Chicago Simon Oliver is trying to recover from his sister’s tragic passing. He breaks out to join a woman named Louise and a man called the Prophet on a quest as urgent as it is enigmatic. Who lies at the end of the road A man known as the Wizard whose past encounter with Louise sparked her own collapse. Their quest becomes a rescue mission as those most in danger race to save one life – and the country’s future. Anthem is rich with unforgettably vivid characters as fast and bright as pop cinema. Noah Hawley takes readers along for a leap into the idiosyncratic pulse of the American heart written with the playfulness biting wit literary power and foresight that have made him one of our most essential writers.
