新聞遊戲可以報導新聞？：數位時代有關新聞遊戲的初探性研究

Abstract

隨著網路科技革新，新聞遊戲（newsgame）成為新的互動敘事，逐漸為全球新聞業所用。本論文關注新聞遊戲產製者的角色，試圖從他們經驗中，了解不同內容與平台的新聞與遊戲如何聚合。本論文採取深度訪談法，針對新聞遊戲工作者進行訪談。研究發現，新聞遊戲多是為新聞故事找個好媒介而出現，新聞遊戲能夠重新詮釋新聞，使用者在實際參與的情境中能獲得更多感受，但遊戲的特質仍讓產製者不斷反思是否違背新聞原則。本研究認為新聞遊戲的產製者們，仍將新聞專業及倫理放於心中，並將新聞真實視為新聞遊戲產製時最重要的因素。

Newsgame has become a new format used by journalism in digital ages, which blurred the boundary between news and games. This research focus on the role of newsgame producers and learns how to converge different content and platform between the traditional journalism and game. Based on in-depth interviewing, this research finds that newsgame is one of the ways to tell stories. Newsgame can help users explore unfamiliar worlds, experience stories, and engage them in a highly emotional and meaningful way. While the producers have to pay more attention on the traits of newsgame, they follow the principles of journalistic professionalism and bear the ethic issues in mind. Approaching the truth is the most important thing as always to them.
