Game Elements Game elements are essentially a theoretical abstraction of all aspects related to a game. The game designer in a developing process specifies the game elements and their relationships to each other. A representation of a relationship between the game elements is a rule of the game. Järvinen furthermore divides the game elements to three additional categorizes (Systemic‚ Compound and Behavioral). In this essay I will focus on the following basic game elements: user interface‚ rule set
