Summary/Abstract: n this paper we present the results of an experimental study of bot identification in a multiplayer online game. Our game of choice for the study was World of Warships. The tested group consisted of 30 subjects (15 experienced players and 15 players without significant experience in this domain). Subjects played the game against bots or against human players. The main hypothesis for the study was that the more immersed a player was, the less accurate s/he will identity the opposing players (as human players or as bots). On the basis of the results, this hypothesis cannot be confirmed.
