NAVONE, Santiago Luis. Ulysses' mask: video games, narrative and masculinities. Nómadas [online]. 2016, n.44, pp.241-254. ISSN 0121-7550.

The article reflects on the relationship between game structure, narrative and symbolization of sexual differences among three classic Nintendo games from the decade of the Eighties. An analysis is performed regarding the contributions of gender studies, ludology and narratology, and conveys how within the game strategies lies a symbolization of sexual difference of a masculine epic-heroic narrative, and how gender ambiguities are present in the binomial subject-player through the participation of the feminine.

Palavras-chave : masculinity; narrative; game strategies; decade of the Eighties; Super Mario Bros; The Legend of Zelda; Metroid.
