What is Game Studies - Game Definitions - A Wittgensteinian Approach about?

This article discusses different approaches to defining games and argues that agreement on definitions is not necessary. It presents a Wittgensteinian approach based on language-games instead of looking for common core attributes. Definitions can help understanding but also limit views, and the process of redefining advances knowledge. Nominal and real definitions serve different purposes that should be clarified.
