Abstract	Welcome to PCGames 2011, the Second International Workshop on Procedural Content Generation in Games, held June 28, 2011 and co-located with the 2011 Foundations of Digital Games conference. Procedural content generation (PCG), where a computer algorithm produces computationally generated levels, art assets, quests, background history, stories, characters, and weapons, offers hope for substantially reducing the authoring burden in games. There are also many potential benefits to PCG, beyond reducing authoring costs. The generation algorithm itself acts as an executable model of the generated aspect of the game, thereby improving our theoretical understanding of game design. With rich procedural generation, a single person becomes capable of creating games that once required entire teams to create, thus making individual artistic expression easier to achieve. Automated content generation can take player history as an input, and thereby create games that adapt to individual players. PCG has the potential to enable entirely new kinds of games and playable experiences that have previously been impossible to create due to human authoring limitations. This workshop has 5 full papers and 4 short papers discussing different aspects of PCG, from questioning the nature of PCG itself to specific content generation techniques. Papers will be presented at the workshop and appear in these proceedings. Each paper received three reviews and the final acceptance decisions were ratified by Gillian Smith, who acted in the role of Program Chair. The overall acceptance rate was 90%. The primary goal of this workshop is to foster discussion on all aspects of procedural content generation, and strengthen the community of procedural content generation researchers. Please enjoy the workshop, and we look forward to a number of engaging discussions!.
