The procedures of all games are basically who does what, when, where and how? Its the rules of what the players can do without being the rules. Additionally, digital wise its integrated within the controls. For example Marios procedures would be how to move and what button does what, it says nothing about how to win the game.
Types of Procedures are:
Starting Action - how to start the game like press play of roll the dice.
progressing action - ongoing steps
special action - game stake and conditional.
Resolving Action - the step to end the game
