Abstract
A survey on the main views about the relation between games and rules leads to understand that game studies need the help of social ontology. This recent philosophical discipline investigates the social facts, those that exist only inasmuch people believe in them. Similarly, games exist only inasmuch people play them. This means that games are constituted by player's intentionality: ???games are such stuff as we are made on???.
