In the midst of one of the most devastating economic collapses in the past 45 years outside of a conflict, the government and many others in Venezuela have turned toward a video game in order to stay alive as well as a possible route to migration. Gaming with video games isn't just about sitting at a desk. It can mean movement. Hunting herbiboars for food in RuneScape can help fund today's food and also the future of tomorrow's to Colombia or Chile Countries where Marinez has relatives.

across to the Caribbean Sea in Atlanta, almost 2,000 miles away from Marinez, lives Bryan Mobley. As a teenager He played RuneScape continuously, he told me on a phone call. "It was entertaining. It was a way to clearly skipping homework, shit like this," he said.

At 26, Mobley has a different view of the game. "I don't think of it as something that's a virtual space anymore," he told me. According to him, it's something of a "number simulator" an analogy to virtual roulette. A boost in the stash of money in the game is an infusion of dopamine.

Since Mobley began playing RuneScape in the late aughts an underground market was growing under the computer game's economy. In the land of Gielinor, players can trade items--mithril longswords, yak-hide armor, herbs harvested from herbiboars--and gold, the in-game currency. Eventually, players began exchanging in-game gold with actual dollars, a process referred to as real-world trading. Jagex is the game's developer restricts exchanges like this.

At first, real-world trading was conducted informally. "You might purchase some gold from your friend at the school." Jacob Reed, the most well-known creator of YouTube videos on RuneScape known as Crumb wrote within an email message to me. Later, demand for gold exceeded supply, and some players became full-time gold farmers, or those who produce on-game currency and sell it for real-world cash.

Internet-age miners always played by massively multiplayer online gaming, or MMOs such as Ultima Online and World of Warcraft. They also worked in some text-based virtual worlds, stated Julian Dibbell, now a lawyer for technology transactions who once wrote about virtual economies in his journalistic work.
