Video games immerse us in the universal joy of play unlike any other, and the joy of playing video games is open to all. It’s a rare world where it doesn’t matter how old we are, what we look like, where we come from or what we do for a living; whether we’re playing in a big city or a small town. When we play, our differences are irrelevant. When we play, we can explore new worlds, discover history, solve challenges, and most importantly, have fun.
