Playing a game is similar to reading a novel as games also tell stories to the user. RPG’S are known for this since the whole game is a moving story which the player acts out were other games have a background story and the user creates the future as they play through the game.
All sort of games can be seen as media objects, for example as devices that enable players to interact with each other in a game environment.
