3. About Action and Adventure Games • An action game requires players to use quick reflexes, accuracy, and timing to overcome obstacles. It is perhaps the most basic of gaming genres, and certainly one of the broadest. Action games tend to have gameplay with emphasis on combat. There are many subgenres of action games, such as fighting games and first-person shooters • adventure describes a way of gameplay without reflex challenges or action. They normally require the player to solve various puzzles by interacting with people or the environment, most often in a non-confrontational way. It is considered a "purist" genre and tends to exclude anything which includes action elements beyond a mini game.

4. About Strategy and Stimulation Games strategy games focus on gameplay requiring careful and skillful thinking and planning in order to achieve victory. Simulation video games is a diverse super-category of games, generally designed to closely simulate aspects of a real or fictional reality

5. More About Casual games • concrete definition of this genre is hard to find explicitly and even implicitly (the definition arrived at by looking at what elements the games in this genre have in common). Obviously, the games that came out on the arcade machines when they were popular are commonly classified and refereed to as arcade games and is in no way indicative of their actual genre. Games that are classified as casual usually have a score system, little (like Angry Birds) or no story (like Pac Man), have linear game progression, have obvious and well-defined levels (like Pac Man and Angry Birds), etc.
