Creative game
In a creative game the emphasis is on fun, creativity and exploration rather than on winning or education. As so often, the border to educational games is fluent. The main difference to educational games is that the player can create new things which are not in a list of given items.
A creative game has no end configuration to be achieved after which the game stops. However, the player may face many puzzle-like problems during his/her play. Hence this topic is closely related to puzzles.
Many creative games are one-player games.
