Type: article
Abstract: Since some people are addicted to playing video games, people always think that video games can only fascinate the players and negatively affect people’s health, such as myopia. However, video games also provide social values such as special group caring, and culture protection and publicity. There are a lot of Chinese domestic video games, even some overseas video games, all contain some Chinese elements. The thesis includes literature reviews which show that video games can help to learn, and some current games which contain elements about Chinese culture are also analyzed to prove that video games can truly protect and propagandize Chinese culture. Also, to prove that the players can absorb the information related to the culture, a game regarding Datiehua, this Chinese intangible cultural heritage is made and offered to classmates. The result shows that the players can truly memorize that information through the video game.
