'Games should not be seen as just being a pastime, but rather should be seen as encapsulating the desire to challenge ourselves and learn something new', says Jesper Juul. He explains that all games are about learning. “When you play a new game, you begin with little knowledge, but you gradually develop game skills and strategies. Learning is one of the core pleasures of all games - from card games to computer games”.
My main question, I guess, is whether and how far it may be true to characterise the pleasure of game-playing in this way.
