Content or artifacts gained during gameplay that are accessible after game instances end.
Components used to play a game are typically kept together between games so that the game can be played again. However, some games have rules for letting players gain ownership of components before, during, or after gameplay. These components may be ones actually used for gameplay or additional ones for recording the gameplay planned or occurred, but can in both cases serve as Memorabilia of specific game instances.

Examples
Winning specific marbles in Marble Games is a archetypical example of Memorabilia in games, and a similar case can be found in Magic: The Gathering when one plays for cards. To a lesser degree, Memorabilia exists in Warhammer 40K as players have to assemble and paint their miniatures before the can be used and this makes the introduction of each one a potentially memorable occurrence.
Games that provide possibilities to take screenshots of ongoing gameplay also allows players to create Memorabilia. Examples of games that do this are numerous and include the Doom, Europa Universalis, Left 4 Dead, Quake, and Sims series as well as World of Warcraft.
Live Action Roleplaying Games such as 1942 – Noen å stole på, Dragonbane, and Trenne Byar often result in many types of Memorabilia since players and facilitators need to create all props for these games.
