In this sense, is intend to analyze the potentialities of working with digital games can bring to the perfecting of skills related to multiliteracies on the part of the reader/player students on a classroom, according to concepts discussed by Ribeiro (2009), Rojo (2012), Xavier (2013), Dionísio (2005, 2011) among others. The analysis will be performed by using screenshots from the game Life is Strange, in order to observe its structural, textual and interactional aspects. From the study, was possible to consider that games require from the players specific skills to ensure quality of interaction, providing substantial contributions to the formation of readers, since read/play demands diverse game knowledge but, mainly, knowledge about the social uses of the different languages and their effects of meaning.
