Abstract

When culture took large part in industrial area, every country has tried to utilize own cultural contents for educational or commercial purpose and the various cultures and histories are recognized as a main concept or subject so that a number of scholars who study history increase. In video game field, special characteristics of interface that audiences participate in the game to complete story-telling is considered as efficient material for learning process. As observed above, it is important to analyze the games that every country makes and export to the world in which the video games is understood as a play of human in general. This Paper has firstly analyzed the most favorite historical games developed in Korea, the USA, Japan, Taiwan and Germany from 1980 to 2005 and secondly, compared that wars and historical origin appears in game scenario, a world view and background story and finally after point out the preferable era and genre of the countries then propose the promising way of design for historical video games. In the process of analysis of a view and heroes in historical games, we compared the real persons, the real historical events and novel in which 11.8% only employed the real persons in 8 out of 68 games. Also the real history and background story are appeared in 37 games which is 54.4% of them. We discovered that the main material that is popular for each country is the historical backing rather than real persons where the favorite historical background is chosen at which they are proud of; 3-Throne era with strong ancient Gogurye for Korea, the 1st and 2nd World Wars and the Independence War for the USA, the tide of war around Middle age for Japan, ancient history of Europe for Germany. The favorite age for video games is Ancient times with 37 games for 54.4%, Middle Age with 7 games fer 10.3%, the prehistoric age with 5 games for 7.35%, remote age with 1 for 1.47%, while current historical games favor Ancient or Modern Age.

문화가 산업의 영역으로 들어온 이후 세계 각국에서는 자국의 문화콘텐츠를 다양한 매체를 통하여 교육적 또는 상업적 목적으로 활용하기 위한 노력을 해 왔으며, 다양한 문화 및 역사가 이 분야의 주요 배경 및 소재로 인식되면서 역사학 등을 전공하는 많은 학자들의 역할도 증가되고 있는 추세이다. 그 중 에서도 특히 게임분야는 관객이 직접 참여하여 스토리텔링을 완성해 간다는 인터페이스 특성상 문화전파와 학습효과가 매우 높은 매체로 인식되고 있다. 이러한 측면에서 인간의 단순한 놀이로 인식되고 있는 디지털게임에서 현재 세계 각국이 제작하여 전 세계에 전파하는 역사게임의 소재 및 세계관등을 비교 분석하는 것은 매우 중요한 일이다. 본 논문은 1980년부터 2005년까지 한국에서 서비스된 약 70여 편의 역사소재게임 중 대표적 제작 및 보급 국가인 한국, 미국, 일본, 대만, 독일, 총 5개국의 역사소재 게임 68편을 무작위로 선정하여 각국이 제작한 게임의 배경시대 및 기획의도 등을 분석하고 역사원형이 게임 시나리오 및 세계관, 배경으로 등장하는 사례를 비교하여 각국이 선호하는 시대와 장르 및 문제점을 도출하여 향후 우리의 발전적인 역사소재게임의 기회방안을 제시하였다. 역사게임에 적용된 세계관 및 등장인물 분석에서는 각국의 역사게임에 적용된 실존인물, 실제역사 및 역사소설로 나누어 비교하였으며, 그 결과 총68편 중 실존인물을 게임에 적용한 사례는 총 8편으로 전체의 11.8%에 해당하였다. 또한, 과거의 실제 역사 및 배경을 게임의 소재로 적용한 사례는 37편으로 전체의 54.4%를 차지한 것으로 조사되었다. 각국이 선호하는 역사게임의 주 소재는 인물보다는 실제의 배경이 주무대가 된다는 것을 알 수 있었으며, 한국은 고대 고구려를 중심으로 한 삼국시대, 미국은 1,2차 세계대전, 독립전쟁, 일본은 중세 일본 전국시대, 독일은 고대 유럽역사 등 각 국이 선호하는 역사적 배경은 그 나라가 역사적으로 자랑스럽게 생각하는 역사적 시점이 역사게임의 주 배경이 된다는 결과를 얻었다 게임의 주 배경이 되는 시대로서는 고대가 37편으로 54.4%를 차지하여 각국에서 제일 선호되는 시대로 조사되었으며 그 다음은 근 현대가 18편으로 26.47%, 중세 7편 10.3%, 선사시대 5편 7.35%, 상고시대가 1편으로 1.47%로 나타나 고대 중세, 근 현대 순으로 선호하는 것으로 나타났다.
