What is a game? Let's agree to a short amnesty.

[droqen]

I'm genuinely interested in how Electron Dance readers personally understand the word "game" and how they classify what they consider "non-game". So let's agree to a short amnesty. Nobody gets to call out anybody for spilling their private definitions of game in the comments. Let there be no shame in the comments today, provided no one uses the word "roguelike".
