Some of the books I will be using for researching creating emotion in games are as follows:

• Rules of Play: Game Design Fundamentals - Salen and Zimmerman
• Creating Emotion in Games - David Freeman
• Emotion and the Structure of Narrative Film: Film as an Emotion Machine - Ed S. Tan
• In-Game Immersion to Incorporation - Gordon Calleja
• Game Feel: A Designer's Guide to Virtual Sensation - Steve Swink
• Game Theory and Experimental Games - Andrew Coleman
• A Casual Revolution - Jesper Juul

| have not yet fully analysed each book, so some texts may not be as relevant as I originally thought. I will post my analysis of the books as well as relevant quotes for my dissertation or honours projects in later blog posts.
