Critical play means to create or occupy play environments and activities that represent one or more questions about aspects of human life . . . . Criticality in play can be fostered in order to question an aspect of a game’s 'content,' or an aspect of a play scenario’s function that might otherwise be considered a given or necessary.
The enactment of critical play exhibits at least three kinds of action: unplaying, re-dressing or reskinning, and rewriting.
