Here I discuss:
► Tinder App
► Bumble App

Dating Apps such as #tinder , #bumble or #lovoo have come to stay. With their playful and stimulating interaction possibilities, they empower us to create our game-like personas to go into the ultimate mission of securing the Most matches (High Scores?) possible. But as in any game (or app?), not all players are equally skilled, and some leave the game out of frustration, evaluathe their game strategy, and come back with better photo and bio text perks – only to lose again.
How can dating apps be seen from a Game Studies perspective? How do apps such as Tinder, Bumble, Lovoo operate with a #gamification principle and make us feel we play for matches? What happens to those who lose in this "Game of Love" and the frustration that comes with it?
Hi! I'm Eduardo, M.A. in Computer Game Studies. Welcome to the 1st part of this video series!
