Download as PPTX, PDF1 like1,039 views
The document discusses game design and playtesting. It covers topics like fun, flow, choices and decisions in game design. It also provides the payoff hierarchy for the Prisoner's Dilemma game and includes sample questions to gather feedback during playtesting, such as asking about the game's objective, how to describe it to others, and what could be improved. The goal of playtesting is to get feedback through an iterative process to identify what needs to change in the game design.
