Summary/Abstract: Modern digital games are omnipresent at multiple levels of contemporary society. The wide variety of their manifestations in digital environments, the preoccupation with the virtual reality, the development and improvement of the appropriate technologies for the development of increasingly complex digital programs, the propensity to develop artificial intelligence applications are some aspects that indicate that digital games turned into something more intricate than simple games. Thus, some games tend to manifest themselves as a point of convergence of new media, becoming new-new media in their own right.
