Looking for “older” Gamers to Share Their Experiences
We’re conducting a research study on the experiences of older gamers in the gaming industry, particularly how ageism and stereotypes impact participation in gaming and esports.
If you’re 40+ years old and actively play video games, we’d love to hear from you. The interview will take about 30-45 minutes, conducted online, and all responses will remain confidential.
We’re interested in your perspective—whether you play casually, competitively, or somewhere in between. Your insights will help highlight the evolving role of older gamers and bring attention to overlooked voices in gaming culture.
If you or someone you know fits the criteria, please message me here, on Discord [Username: pontus0182 Display name: Sleepy ], or send me an email to [ Pontus.Pettersson00@gmail.com ] or [ pepo23jq@studnet.ju.se ]
Who can participate?

- Willing to share their experiences in a friendly, informal interview
How will it work?
- At your convenience, interviews will be conducted online (via Discord, Zoom, Teams, or your preferred platform).
All responses will be confidential and used solely for academic research.
