Intertextuality is an important concept for the media, however, when reviewing the literature intertwining games and intertextuality, we observed that analyzes rarely include as “text” its most specific elements: rules and mechanics. We combine intertextuality with the concept of procedural rhetoric, proposing the term procedural intertextuality for this purpose and present examples of how different types of intertextualities (horizontal, vertical, manifest and constitutive) can be observed specifically as different types of procedural intertextuality. As a result, we realized the importance of rules and mechanics in the production of meanings, concluding that the notion of procedural intertextuality has a relevant potential for game analysis.
