We can define blockchain in its loose sense as a “block of chains” or “chains of blocks”; either ways, we refer to something that speaks of interconnectedness between a set of "blocks." We can also go further to loosely understand the "blocks" in terms of a "ledger," and in this way the chain connects the ledgers, albeit in a more close and stronger way.
As a technical term, @leoglossary defines Blockchain as that which "joins groups of financial transactions together in what are called blocks."

The world of blockchain is quite vast, as it contains so many components and amazing features. Blockchain games is part of such component, and it refers to games that are built on or incorporated into the world of blockchain.
Aside playing games for fun and relaxation, blockchain games takes it a step further and gives you the possibility to earn cryptocurrency (in-game currency) while playing the game (Play2earn) which can be converted to fiat.

These items can be used in the game, they can be rented out to other players for a fee (your passive income) and they can be auctioned in the game marketplace at a higher price (massive income).
Hive is an amazing spot for building games and great dApps because it is a fast, transaction-free, secure, scalable and decentralized blockchain. Thus, many game projects are taking great shape on Hive.
Some of these blockchain games on Hive include:
