Gameplay Ethics is an academic framework that systematically evaluates the moral implications of player actions, game design choices, and interactive mechanisms within video games, distinguishing itself from broader ethical analyses by focusing specifically on the normative dimensions of gameplay as a dynamic, rule-governed, and agency-rich interactive experience.
