| Summary: | The generalization of games as a product and cultural practice is covering a wide heterogeneity of production, consumption and uses. The purpose of this piece is to explain how space and territories are a reading key for the understanding of play phenomena in all their diversity. Our theoretical proposal is to distinguish the spatialities in the sphere of production and the sphere of consumption, we characterize the different spaces produced : the virtual spaces, the territories of the practices and the playful worlds. From this contribution, we present this special issue and identify the main research needs.
