Abstract
In this paper, I look at Lefebvre’s theory on spatial production, with a specific focus on spatial practice and representational spaces. I propose that actionability; in-game objects’ propensity to be interacted with, defines how Lefebvre’s spatial classification is reproduced within game spaces. By looking at how Lefebvre’s spatial classification is produced, I propose that we can understand how games create values. I will do this by looking at Friendship Games.
