A video game genre is a classification assigned to a video game based on its gameplay interaction rather than visual or narrative differences.
 A video game genre is defined by a set of gameplay challenges and are classified independently of their setting or game-world content, unlike other works of fiction such as films or books. For example, a shooter game is still a shooter game, regardless of where it takes place.
The Temple of Elemental Evil is a 2003 role-playing video game by Troika Games.
 It is a remake of the classic "Dungeons & Dragons" adventure of the same title using the 3.5 edition rules.
 This is the only video game to take place in the "Greyhawk" campaign setting, and the first video game to implement the 3.5 edition rule set.
 The game was published by Atari, who then held the interactive rights of the "Dungeons & Dragons" franchise.
Forgotten Realms is a campaign setting for the "Dungeons & Dragons" ("D&D") fantasy role-playing game.
 Commonly referred to by players and game designers alike as "The Realms", it was created by game designer Ed Greenwood around 1967 as a setting for his childhood stories.
 Several years later, Greenwood brought the setting to the "D&D" game as a series of magazine articles, and the first Realms game products were released in 1987.
 Role-playing game products have been produced for the setting ever since, as have various licensed products including sword and sorcery novels, role-playing video game adaptations (including the first massively multiplayer online role-playing game to use graphics), and comic books.
 The Forgotten Realms is one of the most popular "D&D" settings, largely due to the success of novels by authors such as R. A. Salvatore and numerous role-playing video games, including "Pool of Radiance" (1988), "Eye of the Beholder" (1991), "Baldur's Gate" (1998), "Icewind Dale" (2000) and "Neverwinter Nights" (2002).
The National Videogame Museum is a museum about the history of video games and the video game industry, located in Frisco, Texas.
 Opened in 2016, the museum includes classic video game arcade machines in an arcade setting, games on different video game consoles in a living room setting, games on historic computers, exhibits on the history of the industry, artifacts and memorabilia about the video gaming industry.
 One of the museum's goals is to have visitors experience the games, so there are many interactive displays which feature playable games.
Sacred 2: Fallen Angel is an action role-playing game.
 It is the second full game in the "Sacred" video game series.
 It is a prequel which takes place 2,000 years before the events of "Sacred".
 Like its predecessor, the game takes place in a fantasy setting.
 A new game engine allows the game to be rendered in perspective correct 3D, while retaining the viewpoint found in older isometric games.
 Video game designer Bob Bates was involved in its production.
 Power metal band Blind Guardian wrote the song "Sacred Worlds" as the theme for the game and also make an appearance as characters.

Game art design is a subset of game development.
 It is the process of creating the artistic aspects for video games.
 Video game art design begins in the pre-production phase of creating a video game.
 The video game artists are visual artists involved from the conception of the game and they make rough sketches of the characters, setting, objects, etc.
 These starting concept designs can also be created by the game designers before the game is moved into actualization.
 Sometimes these are concept designs are called “programmer art”.
 After the rough sketches are completed and the game is ready to be moved forward those artists or more artists are brought in to bring these sketches to life through graphic design.
