interactive games
Games requiring input
Interactive games are games requiring player input to affect outcomes, as opposed to passive entertainment like watching a film.
The term spans video games, board games, and role-playing games—any game where participants make choices that shape the experience.
The museum's interactive games taught kids about dinosaurs.
In digital contexts, interactivity distinguishes games from non-game media.
