Περίληψη:	Widespread digital culture, and especially the phenomenon of immersive gaming environments, are developing today at the speed of an epidemic. The study explores what is already on the horizon: the quest for genuinely emotive spaces, focusing on the case of melancholy, a rather prevalent atmospheric ambience appearing in contemporary gaming experiences. In this context, the study ventures the invention of a common ground among different interpretations of the melancholic phenomenon -philosophical, textual, medical, artistic, digital. The phenomenon is decoded and spatialized through a comparative reading of abstracts of symptomatic descriptions, visual representations, poetic verses, commonplace symbolisms, or theoretical approaches which attempt to capture in a distinct manner its vague and complex nature, and afterwards, are juxtaposed to video game spaces and their interactive elements. Through this process, the intimate, almost ‘sacred’ interior landscapes of the melancholic subject are transformed into a series of observations about the use of representation, narrative, interactivity processes, or audiovisual language, and are highlighted as potential factors of experiential design in the context of electronic gaming culture. This gesture implies an intention of externalization of any inner mental states, their demystification, their association with a more objective, accessible world of ideas, and finally, their further correlation with the architecture of affective ambiences as well as with contemporary design issues in general.
