Others, like The Witcher, Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess and Eastshade, create their own cities and buildings. Some, like Assassin's Creed, Grand Theft Auto and Forza Horizon recreate virtual versions of familiar places. Video games mirror and magnify this built environment in different ways. Our homes, offices, shopping malls, cathedrals, stations, bridges and even public toilets have all been designed.

We spend our lives in buildings every day.
