Key components of games Goals Rules Challenge Interaction Generally involve mental or physical simulation, and often both.

Dexterity/coordination games This class of games includes any game in which the skill element involved relates to manual dexterity or hand-eye coordination, but excludes the class of video games. The advent of home video game systems largely replaced some of these games, such as table hockey. E.g. Jenga, pinball. Wikipedia

Board games A board game is a game in which counters or pieces that are placed on, removed from, or moved across a “board”. Senet has been found in 3100 BC, is the oldest board game known to have existed. Eg: Wikipedia
Card games A card game is played with a deck of playing cards intended for that game that are identical in size and shape. Each card has two sides, the face and the back. The backs of the cards in a deck are indistinguishable (except for those games employing the non-standard cards commonly accompanying a deck of cards, preventing any player who cannot see the card's face from knowing its value. The faces of the cards in a deck may all be unique, or may include duplicates, depending on the game. In either case, any card is readily identifiable by its face. The set of cards that make up the deck are known to all of the players using that deck. Eg: Wikipedia

Dice games Dice games are games that use or incorporate a die as their sole or central component, usually as a random device. E.g.Backgammon, 大富翁 Wikipedia
Domino and tile games A tile-based game is a game that uses tiles as one of the fundamental elements of play. It has different meanings depending on how it is used. There are many traditional games which use tiles, but when referring to video games, normally a tile-based game means a game which uses tiles as part of its graphic output and/or unit movement system. Domino tiles are usually rectangular, twice as long as they are wide and at least twice as wide as they are thick, though games exist with square tiles, triangular tiles and even hexagonal tiles. Eg: Scrabble; Mahjong Wikipedia
Pencil and paper games Pencil and paper games are games that can be played solely with paper and pencil. In some board games, including some abstract strategy games like Gomoku(五子棋), a piece once played will not be moved on the board or removed from the board. Such games can be played either as board games or as paper-and-pencil games, while many other paper-and-pencil games cannot be played without writing utensils. Eg: Tic-tac-toe; Sudoku; Wikipedia
Guessing games A guessing game is a game in which the object is to guess some kind of information, such as a word, a phrase, a title, or the location of an object. Many of the games are played co-operatively. In some games some player(s) know the answer, but cannot tell the other(s), instead they must help them to guess it. Hangman is a paper and pencil guessing game for two or more players. One player thinks of a word and the other tries to guess it by suggesting letters. Eg: Wikipedia
Video Games A video game is an electronic game that involves interaction with a user interface to generate visual feedback on a video device. Pong (marketed as PONG) is one of the earliest arcade video games, and is a tennis sports game featuring simple two-dimensional graphics. The aim is to defeat an opponent—either computer-controlled or a second player—by earning a higher score. The game was originally manufactured by Atari Incorporated (Atari), who released it in 1972. Wikipedia
Online Games An online game is a game played over some forms of computer network. At the present, this almost always means the Internet or equivalent technology; but games have always used whatever technology was current: modems before the internet, and hard wired terminals before modems. The rising popularity of Flash and Java led to an Internet revolution where websites could utilize streaming video, audio, and a whole new set of user interactivity. When Microsoft began packaging Flash as a pre-installed component of IE, the Internet began to shift from a data/information spectrum to also offer on-demand entertainment. This revolution paved the way for sites to offer games to web surfers. Most online games like World of Warcraft, charge a monthly fee to subscribe to their services, while games such as Guild Wars offer an alternative no monthly fee scheme. Wikipedia
Role-playing game A role-playing game (RPG; often roleplaying game) is a game in which the participants assume the roles of fictional characters. Participants determine the actions of their characters based on their characterization, and the actions succeed or fail according to a formal system of rules and guidelines. Within the rules, players have the freedom to improvise; their choices shape the direction and outcome of the game. Wikipedia
Game Simulation The simulation game or simply game is simulation or reenactment of various activities or "real life" in the form of a game for various purposes: training, analysis, or prediction. Well-known examples are war games, business games, and roleplay simulation. Such activities originate in the human prehistory of games deduced by anthropology from observing primitive cultures, where children's games in a significant degree mimic activities of adults: hunting, warring, nursing, etc. Wikipedia
