Abstract :
Pervasive gaming as a research field has been attracting more and more attentions from researchers and practitioners. However, there is no much work on player´s general attitude to pervasive games even this is an important aspect of understanding player enjoyment of pervasive games. We created a survey where we wanted to investigate people´s attitude towards pervasive games. The survey included questions on people´s general attitude towards pervasive games, their attitude towards some particular game concepts and game modes, and their attitude towards some specified pervasive elements in games. The result from this survey is presented in this paper, along with discussions about the results.
