Games as Parties; Game As Party

It's been a while since I've been to a good party.

Games have been perceived in many different lenses. They might be - or be comparable to - or benefit from being seen as sharing features with - art, architecture, playgrounds, simulations, museums/galleries, places, stories, movies... and other things. My newest lens is the game as a party.

I've been reading The Nature of Order and it's really getting me in the mindset of places, and I mean to remind myself that games are not places where life happens, but more akin to the life itself.
