What exactly is a "concept game?" A concept game is one that, rather than simply being a game that requires players to learn how to operate controls so that they can complete objectives and eventually reach the 'ending', tries to create an overall game "experience," where every element works together to further the illusion. Some games that fall into this genre are the recent
Rez, with its bizarre world where light and sound become one, or
The Getaway, in which the developers attempted to remove everything characteristic of videogames in order to create the first fully playable movie.
