I found this movie by Twitter and I think it’s pretty impressive and disturbing for me. Is it the future? It could be… Play would be everywhere and dreams of some could come true: we would have just a big environment, world in which we can play many different games. Game nested inside a game nested inside a game… But then a player could just trapped himself just like with journeys in time. At some point a player could not know what he really is! But then… It’s not a game anymore, because a player isn’t in a safe environment, “magic circle”. For him it’s dangerous place, sometimes more like a nightmare… It’s like a work to reach the end… Well, I hope so that future of play will look more brightly… As I think now, I wouldn’t want to be in that game that takes place in the film. Not without the escape option.

Now I have to get and read Zimmerman’s “Rules of play”!
