The brand is integrated into the story, mission, and other game activities in an adv-game. These adv-games can be observed in a variety of game components, including characteristics of specific products, advertising banners in a game segment, and other elements (Aulia, et al, 2. general, advanced games have been around for a long time, yet they continue to evolve and adapt. Traditional games like monopoly, snakes and ladders, and chess may all be turned into adv-games by adding a hint of brand awareness.

This is because bibliometrics can be used to categorize certain topics in bibliographical form as well as to generate representative summaries of selected topics. VOSviewer is a software tool that facilitates bibliometric analysis. Offering the capability to generate, visualize, and analyze bibliometric maps. With VOSviewer bibliometric network data can be evaluated, such as connections between 51 | International Journal of Informatics Information System and Computer Engineering 4. 49-60 relationships among researchers. Building upon previous research, this study aims to conduct bibliometric analysis on the topic of Game Advertising by utilizing VOSviewer software for mapping analysis. The quantitative bibliometric analysis and a descriptive approach. Data is collected from searches and processing using the keyword "Game Advertising" on platforms such as Google Scholar and Publish or Perish (Kania and Sabariah. METHOD The research methodology employed in descriptive, and quantitative approaches. Information was gathered from various published journals indexed by Google Scholar. Additionally, a literature review was conducted on the research topic "Gaming Advertising" using the Publish or Perish software, chosen specifically for identifying bibliometric data (Arwendria, , 2. Furthermore, data obtained from Publish or Perish was saved in *RIS format and imported into VOSviewer software for analysis. Publish or Perish 8 and VOSviewer 1. 17 were utilized as the software tools for data collection in this study. In this research, relevant materials related to game advertising were reviewed and selected. A total of 989 research articles on Game Advertising published between 2017 and 2022 were These articles were saved in ris format for further analysis. VOSviewer software was then used to generate visualizations and analyze DOI: https://doi. org/10. 34010/injiiscom. p-ISSN 2810-0670 e-ISSN 2775-5584 trends using bibliometric maps. The article data from the prepared database sources were mapped using three types of visualizations in VOSviewer software: visualization, and density visualization. Additionally, terms included in the VOSviewer mapping visualization were filtered to refine the analysis (Kurnia. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Advancements in the Field of Game Advertising Research Research on the development climate in the field of Game advertising. Illustrating the development of research in the field of Game advertising from 2017 to 2022 in Fig. Fig. Level of research development on Game Advertising Figure 1 shows that research on Game advertising decreases every year, starting from 2017 to 2022 except for 2021. This can be proven in 2017 with 232 articles, in 2018 it decreased to 210 articles, in 2019 it decreased again to 199 articles, in 2020 it decreased to 136 articles, except in 2021 there was a less significant increase to 137 articles, and in 2022 research on Game Advertising decreased dramatically, the number of publications to 40. After conducting a search using the Publish or Perish software, we identified 989 articles Yogie Rinaldy Ginting.

If the color of a term is lighter, it signifies that research on that term is becoming more popular. Conversely, if the color is darker or faded, it indicates that research on that term is decreasing in frequency. In Figure 8, it can be observed that there are some terms depicted in yellow color with relatively larger diameters. These terms called emission, game advertising, analysis, application, and engagement. Yogie Rinaldy Ginting.
