I uppsatsen analyseras interaktiva beståndsdelar använda i barnböcker, med syftet att utifrån dem skapa innovativ och anpassad game-play mekanik för digitala äventyrsspel. Under arbetet har fokus lagts på att undersöka beståndsdelarnas påverkan av mottagaren och vad de ger för mediet, samt att skapa funktioner som stimulerar spelarens nyfikenhet. Detta gör att spelaren blir drivkraften bakom äventyrsspelets narrativ. Resultatet av undersökningen är en prototyp vilken visar de funktioner som presenteras i uppsatsen, samt en diskussion kring tillvägagångssättet och vikten av att utvecklare ser bortom det egna mediet vid medieutveckling. In this thesis interactive elements used in children’s books are analysed before being redesigned with the purpose of creating innovative game-play mechanics suited for digital adventure games. An important part of the thesis has been the exploration of these elements’ affect on the receiver and how they contribute to the medium, as well as creating game-play mechanics that stimulate the player’s curiosity. The developed mechanics result in the player becoming the driving force behind the game’s narrative. The outcome of the thesis is a prototype which showcases the developed mechanics presented in the thesis, as well as a discussion regarding the approach and the importance of developers exploring other media as a part of their development process.

The aim of this study is to investigate how women who came to Sweden as unaccompanied children experienced their entry into the Swedish labor market based on six qualitative interviews with woman in the age range of 24-32. The interviews were analyzed and interpreted using social capital as a theory. The results show that the informants turned to their friends consisting of other unaccompanied children, and that this network provided security and answers especially in the beginning of their stay in Sweden. Furthermore, our results show that bonding social capital played an important part as an enabler to search for contacts outside the network. All respondents report that it is difficult to get to know Swedes. The respondents did not attribute any significant importance to their social worker but they all emphasized that a significant key to enter the labour market is to learn the Swedish language.
