• Abstract:

  The studies of Vygotsky (2008), Elkonin (2009) and Leontiev (1988), in the historical-cultural perspective, originated a general theory about the game. This work presents results of bibliographic research in Brazilian scientific articles, related to the game, produced between 2010 and 2018, in the areas of psychology and education. The objective was to systematize and analyze the studies available in the Virtual Health Library: ‘’Psicologia Brasil’’ (BVSPsi); on the CAPES/MEC Journal Portal (Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel/Ministry of Education) and on the Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO). The keywords were “game”; “cultural-historical psychology” and “Vygotsky”. The analysis of the results was of content, of the thematic type. The results showed that most of the research was carried out in preschool education and that they are empirical. It is concluded that in the databases consulted there are few Brazilian studies. The topics are relevant and contribute both to the deepening and to the development of cultural-historical psychology.
