  2. Video game genres are used to categorize video games based on their gameplay interaction rather than visual or narrative differences. • A video game genre is defined by a set of gameplay challenges.

  3. Action Games • An action game requires players to use quick reflexes, accuracy, and timing to overcome obstacles.
