Categories of games form an important class of models for intuitionistic linear logic and denotational semantics. In this talk, I will give an elementary introduction to the structure of these categories and stress the parts that are key to their application as models of linear logic and computation. Apart from some (monoidal) category theory the talk should be very accessible and fun.
