If it is called ' game ' or ' song ', etc, then we usually use the ; if there is no similar common noun and the is not a part of the title, no the : Let's sing the monkey song / The Monkey's Song / Mona. Let's play the repeating game / The Dating Game / Simon Says / Monopoly. For comparison: Let's go to the cosmetics shop / The Body Shop / Korres.
