<p><b>New page</b></p><div>'''Gamist''' is one of the three agendas or approaches to play in [[larp theory|larp theories]] such as the [[Threefold Model]], [[Three Way Model]], and [[GNS Theory]]. In the gamist agenda, an rpg is approached ''as a game'', with consequent values of fairness, challenge, and being able to succeed or "win".<ref>John Kim, [http://www.darkshire.net/~jhkim/rpg/theory/threefold/faq_v1.html The Threefold Model FAQ], q3, February 14 2003.
