Culturalization
Culturalization is adapting a game or application to the particular cultural aspects of the country where it is planned to be released.
Players perceive information from the perspective of the cultural environment to which they belong. Colors, sounds, the appearance of characters, their behavior, entourage, and a vast number of other nuances are all important in this respect.
There are two types of cultural adaptation of a gaming product for a regional market:
- Reactive culturalization includes identifying and removing elements which may make
users quit a game. - Proactive culturalization includes identifying and adding to a game culture-specific facts and elements of a region that make the game more relevant on the market.
The first type helps to avoid financial loss due to a game being perceived negatively,
while the second helps to establish a loyal player community.
We will help you to enhance your game so that the gameplay is easily understandable and enjoyable for people in different countries.
