The possibility for players to manipulate game elements regardless of game rules.

This pattern is a still a stub.

Examples

Basically all traditional Board Games and that are not mediated through a computer system support Free Game Element Manipulation. Several of those played on computers do allow this as well, especially in single-player mode, but this depends on the implementation.

An example of a more modern game that allows Free Game Element Manipulation even in computerized form is the iPhone och iPod touch versions of the M.I.G. quiz game.

Using the pattern

Self-Facilitated Games are by their nature open to Free Game Element Manipulation even if it may cause discussions among players. Human Dedicated Game Facilitators can allow the free manipulation of game elements also but for mechanical or computerized need to be constructed to do so or will actively work against the pattern.
