In knowledge-based economies, questions of protection of intellectual property have a significance that is difficult to overestimate. Today, systems of IP protection are becoming a frontier of national economies and one of the basic aspects of their competitiveness. Problems of IP and ways of its protection attract more and more attention from business, politicians, and public.

Let’s clarify the notion of game as we shall use it in the venture business context, our point of reference being the book Homo Ludens (1938) by J.
