| Preliminary scope of work |
| The goal of this thesis is to identify select game design patterns and interaction principles with potential for transformation of action adventure computer games into virtual reality environment.
In the frames of practical part there will be eleborated a brief comparative formal analysis of select game design elements from the game genre of action adventure computer games (VR and non-VR). |
