kankin

kankin Game is a structured activity, usually undertaken for enjoyment and sometimes used as an educational tool. kankin Games are distinct from work, which is usually carried out for remuneration, and from art, which is more concerned with the expression of ideas. However, the distinction is not clear-cut, and many kankin games are also considered to be work (such as professional players of spectator sports/kankin games) or art (such as jigsaw puzzles or kankin games involving an artistic layout such as Mahjong solitaire).

Key components of kankin games are goals, rules, challenge, and interaction. kankin Games generally involve mental or physical stimulation, and often both. Many kankin games help develop practical skills, serve as a form of exercise, or otherwise perform an educational, simulational or psychological role. According to Chris Crawford, the requirement for player interaction puts activities such as jigsaw puzzles and solitaire "kankin games" into the category of puzzles rather than kankin games.
