Glossary Entry: Let's Play

Definition

Let's Plays are a popular genre of YouTube video where someone records themselves playing a video game. People who do this regularly or for a living are known as Let's Players.

Watching someone play a game may sound boring, but Let's Players usually keep things interesting by providing entertaining commentary as they play, and some groups even use sandbox games as a medium for telling their own elaborate stories.
