Videogame researchers longing to sport your striped polo shirts and off-the-shoulder oversize sweaters, wait no longer. While a little out of bounds of the usual themes of WCG, I want to announce the call for papers for Ludologica Retro, Volume 1: Vintage Arcade (1971 - 1984) a spinoff series of the regular Ludologica, edited by myself and the indefatigable Matteo Bittanti. This interdisciplinary critical anthology will explore a range of topics regarding the aesthetic, cultural, and social significance of seminal vintage arcade games.
