I'll cheer on the call to play games. We do board games once a week, and there's a lot of strategy and cool elements that seem ripe for the stealing. Heck, a simple trade sub-system like Settlers of Catan could be a great element in a game—do you give/trade/lend something that helps someone else at the cost of delaying your own progress? Can you make a win/win trade, corner a rare resource? I could see an RPG using just that subsystem to really underline some issues.
