Game communities

Game communities

Associazione Giochi Antichi’s mission is to research and support organizations promoting traditional games.

A great number of game communities still survive in small towns, and villages outside the large urban areas, playing by unwritten rules and building their gaming tools with traditional methods and local materials.

The Association promotes the preservation of game traditions, an oral heritage that would otherwise disappear. There is no reference, however, to “games of the past”, but to men and women still playing and teaching games to this day .
