Hello, I would like to know if all verbs using the мы form can be used as let’s ~ like the Начина́ем in the second example above. Thanks

Hi Anita,
It is not really “let’s” in its direct meaning. Literally it is “We start the game” and can be translated like that. It’s just in English, it is more common to use “let’s” in such case.
There are more obvious ways to say “let’s” in Russian, you can learn more in this lesson.
