Main Article – Board Games

A game is basically a structured type of play, normally undertaken for fun or entertainment, and at times also used as a teaching tool. Games are quite different from work, which is usually undertaken for remuneration, or from literature, that is more often an expressive expression of philosophical or aesthetic elements. A game involves a set of rules with various parameters such as objectives, conflict, or a goal. It is usually played between two or more people who are involved in separate locations, with goals differing according to the nature of the game. Sometimes one player controls the computer, sometimes another, and in other cases a third person may be involved who makes commentary on events in an animated format.

The analysis also considers the main games and the sub-games that each has to offer. This could include card games, word games, or matching games, for instance.
