Résumé : Role-playing games (RPG) are increasingly used to support negotiation processes. As new ICT tools different experiments have shown their relevance to put stakeholders in situation of interaction. But play is not supposed to be reality, and the link between interactions in the game and those occurred in the real negotiation process must be clarified. A methodology has been created in order to describe and analyze the relationships between play and reality in such a context. This article is particularly focused on the contributions of Goffman's discourse analysis to tackle this issue. An analysis of a game session gives information on individual and collective elements guiding interactions of stakeholders. They are, afterwards, confronted with individual and collective information collected in reality.
