游戏活动自文明萌芽时期就有了,随着逐渐扩及群众性娱乐、教学计划和商业推销活动之后,便成了一种空前普遍化的现象。任何游戏都要有对立的双方或多方相互竞争才能进行。这就使游戏活动在临床治疗中找到了用场(“用游戏消除冲突”)並促使人们对游戏展开技术革新——改变游戏设备,但不改变游戏的主旨。这类革新中最新的一项,是微信息处理机或“芯片”。 Game activities have existed since the beginning of civilization. With the gradual expansion of mass entertainment, teaching programs and commercial marketing activities, they have become an unprecedented universal phenomenon. Any game must have two or more opponents to each other to compete. This has made games useful in clinical settings (“conflict elimination with games”) and has driven people to reinvent the game - changing game devices without changing the subject matter of the game. The latest of these innovations is the micro-processor or “chip.”
