Reactions to the Final Version
“Good systems, just too basic.” – unnamed
Self-Evaluation of Final Version
The game wasn’t finished hence the lack of gameplay features, sound, and the unfinished textures. Though it still was a great start from my perspective.

Game Play Analysis
Formal Elements | |
The Basics | REMINDER: PLACE YOUR RESPONSES IN THIS COLUMN (DELETE THIS MESSAGE BEFORE YOU WRITE) |
Name of the game | |
The platform | |
Time played (should be at least 30 minutes) | |
If you could work on this game (change it), what would you change and why? | |
Players | NOTES |
How many players are supported? | |
Does it need to be an exact number? | |
How does this affect play? | |
Some types of player frameworks: Single Player – like Solitare. Head-to-head – 1 vs. 1, Chess. PvE – Player vs. Environment, or multiple players vs. the game. Common in MMOs like World of Warcraft. One against Many – Single-player vs. multiple (obvy). Free-for-all – Every man for himself (1 vs. 1 vs. 1 vs. 1..). Most common for multiplayer games, from Monopoly to Modern Warfare. Individuals Against the System – Like Blackjack, where the Dealer is playing against multiple players, but those players have no effect on each other. Team Competition – Multiple vs. multiple, i.e. sports. Predator-prey – Players form a circle and everyone’s goal is to attack the player on their left and defend themselves from the player on their right. Five-pointed Star – Eliminate both players who are not on either side of you. | |
Objectives/Goals | NOTES |
What are the players trying to do? | |
Some common objectives include: Capture/Destroy – Eliminate all your opponents pieces (Chess). Territorial Acquisition – Control as much territory as you can, not necessarily harming other players (RISK). Collection – Collect a certain number of objects throughout the game (Pokemon). Solve – Solve a puzzle or crime (Clue). Chase/race/escape – Anything where you are running towards or away from something (playground game Tag). Spatial Alignment – Anything involving the positioning of elements (Tetris or Tic-Tac-Toe or that game at Cracker Barrel). Build – Advance your characters or build your resources to a certain point (The Sims). Negation of another goal – The game ends if you perform an act that is forbidden by the rules (Jenga or Twister). | |
Rules/Mechanics | |
There are three categories of (what the book Rules of Play calls) operational rules: Setup – the things you do at the beginning of a game. Progression of Play – what happens during the game. Resolution – How an outcome is determined based on the game state. | |
Controls | NOTES |
What controls are used? | |
Was there a clear introductory tutorial? | |
Were they easy to understand or did you find yourself spamming the controller? | |
Resources & Resource Management | NOTES |
What kinds of resources do players control? | |
How are they maintained during play? | |
What is their role? | |
A resource is everything under the control of a single player. Could be the money in Monopoly or health in WoW. Other examples are: Territory in RISK The number of questions remaining in 20 Questions Objects picked up during videogames (guns, health packs, etc.) Time (game time, real-time, or both) Known information (like suspects in Clue) | |
Game State | NOTES |
How much information in the game state is visible to the player? | |
A snapshot of the game at a single point is the game state. The resources you have, the un-owned properties in Monopoly, your opponent’s Archery skill all count towards the game state. Some example information structures are: Total Information – Nothing is hidden, like Chess. Info per player – Your hand of cards is only visible to you. One player has privileged info – Like a Dungeon Master. The game hides info from all players – Like Clue, where no one knows the victory condition. Fog of War – In video games, where certain sections of the map are concealed if you do not have a unit in sight range of that area. You also cannot see other players’ screens, so each player is unaware of the other’s information. | |
Sequencing | NOTES |
In what order do players take their actions? | |
How does play flow from one action to another? | |
Some structures include: Turn-based – Standard board game technique. Turn-based with simultaneous play – where everyone takes their turn at the same time (like writing something down or putting a card down in War). Real-time – Actions happen as fast as players can make them. Action-based video games. Turn-based and time limits – You have this long to take your turn. | |
Player Interaction | |
Some examples: Direct Conflict – I attack you. Negotiation – If you support me here, I’ll help you there. Trading – I’ll give you this for that. Information Sharing – If you go there, I’m warning you, a trap will go off. | |
Theme & Narrative | NOTES |
Does it have an actual story structure? | |
Is it based on a historical event (or similar)? | |
Does the theme or narrative help you know how to play? | |
Does it have emotional impacts? | |
Also, look for en media res (does it start in the middle of the game)? | |
The Elements in Motion | NOTES |
How do the different elements interact? | |
What is the gameplay like? | |
Is it effective? | |
Are there any points where the design choices break down? | |
Design Critique | NOTES |
Why did the designer make these particular choices? | |
Why this set of resources? | |
What if they made different decisions? | |
Does the design break down at any point? | |
Graphics & Sound | NOTES |
Does the game art pair well with the mechanics? | |
Did you find any bugs or glitches? | |
What about sound? | |
Can you spot any technical shortcuts? | |
Various Stages of the Game | NOTES |
To wrap up, some things to keep in mind (as if there aren’t enough already) as you play: | |
What challenges do you face, and how do you overcome them? | |
Is the game fair? | |
Is it replayable? Are there multiple paths to victory or optional rules that can change the experience? | |
What is the intended audience? | |
What is the core, the one thing you do over and over, and is it fun? |
