Mission Statement
At its core, Cerise is a resource by and for women gamers. We are dedicated to increasing the voices of underrepresented identities in the game development industries and in gamer communities.
Cerise is a monthly publication released in the form on an online magazine that covers video games, tabletop games, and live action role-playing. Our features include industry news, profiles of gender-inclusive game modules, spotlights of game developers and prominent voices in gamer communities, game reviews, art, and editorials. We have an open submissions policy.
Although gender is the foremost focus of Cerise, we are dedicated to creating an inclusive space for individuals of all identities traditionally underrepresented in the mainstream, and for our allies who support our movement to increase our presence and representation in the game industry. We are a feminist publication and oppose all forms of oppression and the ways in which that oppression manifests itself in game communities in ways that hurt women, transgender individuals, queer-identified people, people of color, people with disabilities, and other marginalized individuals. We hope that our inclusive philosophy will propagate to help the game industry and culture at large become an environment welcoming to people of all identities.
