A game characterized by simple action and response gameplay. This is the broadest category of games and there are many variants and sub-genres. Not many games fit neatly into just one. Under the most basic definition the player's on-screen character can run, jump, shoot or fly, but the defining obstacles are overcome by "physical means", rather than involved intellectual problem solving. Examples include some of the earliest videogames (Space Invaders), but the genre also includes advanced 3D games like ids Quake or Rares James Bond Goldeneye.
