This research adresses the effects of using this novel input modality to control a simple game, and also looks into the beneficial effects of bringing game elements into BCI experiments. A simple BCI game has been developed and evaluated with fifteen subjects using the Game Experience Questionnaire (GEQ) developed at the Eindhoven Game Experience Lab. Three variations of the game were evaluated for comparison: the original game with BCI input, one with keyboard input, and one with a more clinical look leaving out all extraneous information. The keyboard-controlled game was considered easy and boring, whereas using BCI for input resulted in a more challenging, immersive and richer experience. The design and additional information presented by the game also resulted in higher immersion compared to the clinical design. date: 2008-10-20 date_type: published publisher: Eindhoven University of Technology place_of_pub: Eindhoven pagerange: 36-39 pages: 4 event_title: Extended Abstracts of the International Conference on Fun and Games 2008 event_location: Eindhoven, Netherlands event_dates: 20-21 Oct 2008 event_type: conference utpub: TRUE refereed: FALSE isbn: 9789038614571 metis_id: 254896 import_src_id: oai:ewi.utwente.nl:13837 research_group_name: Human Media Interaction (HMI) research_group_id: 24212203 research_school_id: UT-S-SIKS editors_name: Markopoulos, P. editors_name: Hoonhout, J. editors_name: Soute, I. editors_name: Read, J. faculty_name: Electrical Engineering, Mathematics and Computer Science (EEMCS) faculty_id: 24000000 citation: Oude Bos, D. and Reuderink, B.
