<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>&#039;&#039;&#039;Off-game&#039;&#039;&#039; is a state for elements that are outside of the game. It is contrasted with [[in-game]], which instead encompasses all the elements that are in the game. It is similar to [[non-diegetic]].<br /> <br /> Objects are considered off-game if they do not fit within the established fiction of the game, such as modern camping gear in a medieval fantasy setting. During play most players actively avoid and ignore elements that are off-game, as they disrupt the individual establishment of fiction. [[360º]] illusion can be seen as an attempt to abolish all off-game elements from play. <br /> <br /> Individuals can also be said to be off-game or &quot;out of character&quot;, if they act as themselves and not their character during play. It is usually frowned upon, especially if the reasons for being off-game is not related to the game at all.<br /> <br /> Many newer techniques make use of brief off-game elements to improve the play, such as players entering the [[meta room]] to discuss their play off-game or even structured off-game time, as well as cues during play that are not part of the fictional world.<br /> <br /> [[Category:Concepts]]<br /> {{See also|Off-Game Sign}}</div>
