This article thematizes the traditional games as cultural manifestations produced by humanity. We aimed to understand the meanings attributed to traditional games, nowadays, by social subjects who experienced the process of transforming of Societies which were consolidated with Italian colonization in Rio Grande do Sul. We carry out a field and documentary research. Traditional games have been present in the daily of the Italian colonies since the first decades of colonization, in the families' homes, in bars and in open fields. In the 1960s, it started a movement to build head offices, the Societies, resulting from the political and economic transformations. Currently, we identified traditional games are returning to bars and homes as refusing the impositions of the rules, control time, modes of dressing, behaving, gesturing and communicating. Traditional games take on meaning in life players when they make it possible to externalize and materialize the inner life.
