The 5 Game Elements (GGISS)
The 5 Game Elements (GGISS)
Games are everywhere today. Be it for entertainment, learning or recreation - games have become part of our everyday lives.
...
In order to develop a good game, we have to include some, if not all, of these game elements into our game.
- Graphics (refers to images and graphics effects)
- Gameplay (refers to how fun the game is, the length of playability, how engaging the game is. example: extra lives, bonuses, levels)
- Interface (refers to how the game is controlled - mouse, keyboard, touchscreen)
- Sound (refers to audio, music and sound effects.)
- Story (refers to what the game is about, the characters that players can identify with, realistic and achievable goals, different skill levels and varieties)

One of my favourite games is the Peak App. Actually, it is a collection of well-designed games that trains the brain to be faster to recognise patterns, improve focus, concentration, memory, language, coordination.
On top of tacking your performance over time, 5 random games are generated daily.
The Peak App compares your performance with users from all around the world.
The Peak App can be downloaded for free from the Apple App Store or the Android Play Store.

Games Documentation is the document which states
