Artcade revolves around art

Artcade explores the intersections between video games and the most recognized and established art forms, such as painting, literature, sculpture, music, architecture, theater, poetry, and photography.

Artcade is a psychedelic journey through the cross-pollination of styles, symbols, archetypes, and gestures.

Subscribe so you never miss a masterpiece.

Nomenclature criteria

To keep the nomenclature as consistent as possible across such different artistic productions, the following scheme will be used:

Author/creator/developer/director [Original developer/director in case of remakes/reissues/covers] (Year of production/publication) [Year of the first edition/production if different from the one already indicated] Title of the work (Edition/album) [Original title] [Type of artistic production] [Genre] [Type of medium for pictorial works] [Dimensions in the case of paintings/duration in the case of movies or songs/duration of the main story in the case of video games] (Platform of the video game covered in the article) [Additional platforms where the title is available] Distributor/producer/publisher/place of preservation/first performance

The information about the works is drawn from artists’ or producers’ websites, or from other reliable sources such as HowLongToBeat, Wikipedia, or IMDb.
