Samuel Ulbricht studied philosophy and German as a teacher in Stuttgart, where he passed his first state examination with distinction. For his final thesis on the ethics of computer gaming, he received the "Prize of the Friends of the University of Stuttgart". His current research focuses on normative differences in moral theories, problem areas in applied ethics, and the aesthetics and ethics of computer games. He currently teaches German and ethics at the Liselotte-Gymnasium in Mannheim.

“The publication clearly contributes to the discourse in question and should certainly be read not only by students but also by educators involved in game studies. It may be a useful supplement to courses that deal with the ethical aspects of games, but it may also be of benefit to philosophers who wish to bring an up-to-date context to their studies or teaching.” (Magdaléna Švecová, Acta Ludologica, Vol. 5 (2), December, 2022)“A major strength of Ethics of Computer Gaming is in the holistic nature of Ulbricht’s analysis … . This book will prove an interesting addition to researchers interested in the ethical implications of videogames, as its conclusions are not necessarily congruent with other theorists.” (RebeccaGrose, Press Start, press-start.gla.ac.uk, Vol. 9 (1), 2023)
