How about just "roleplaying"? It's a hobby, a game, a way of life... but that's the common thread.

It's done in a very friendly fashion. It's a very gamist sort of game that one plays with the knowledge that that is exactly what it is. It's pretty fun with a good group. I don't think I'd want it to be my only game experience, but many people are happy with HM and HM alone. Many of those...
