(Apologies if this is kind of off-topic here and please try to direct me to a better place to ask if that is the case...but I tried asking on Academia SE and they called it off-topic, suggesting here, Board Games SE or Roleplaying Games SE. Those other two suggestions don't really seem worthwhile as I'm not talking about a board game and RPG SE is for tabletop pen-and-paper things..)
I am in my final year of my undergraduate games development course and so for part of my final year project (which involved making a game of course) I have to do a written report which needs to include references as appropriate. In the past when I showed my supervisor some of what I had done one of the things he zeroed in on as being something that should be tagged with a reference to something is my declaration that the game is "turn-based", and also my mention of RPGs when talking about existing games with similar systems.
I've tried Googling around a bit, mostly on Google Scholar, but I've yet to find anything suitable. I'm just looking for some things giving a good outline/definition of what constitutes a "turn-based game" and similarly an RPG. As I mentioned in the title it doesn't necessarily have to be a paper, so long as it provides what I need.
Sorry for the somewhat inappropriate tag but don'tcha know newbs can't create new tags...I suppose that's another sign I'm probably wasting my time asking this question here. :(
