Digital Gaming Law - Part 2

Touching different parts of an elephant from different angles, a group of visually impaired people identify the elephant in different ways. Tree trunk, boa constrictor, wall, palm leaf and rope. The analogies are often accurate, but also inaccurate. "There is no doubt that an elephant is more than its constituent parts, and we are blinded by our past," Richard Lehrberg said at a conference in Cannes in 1994, describing multimedia works. A digital game comes together from many parts and different elements, and when we try to evaluate it as a whole, we cannot put it into a single mold and benefit from a single legal protection. Digital games are a whole made up of different works.
