 Electronic game, an electronic game is a game that employs electronics to create an interactive system with which a player can play. Video game is the most common form today, and for this reason the two terms are often mistakenly used synonymously. Other common forms of electronic game include such products as handheld electronic games, stand-alone systems e.g. pinball, slot machines, or electromechanical arcade games and exclusively non-visual products e.g. audio games.
