(PSU login required)
As you play the game, I want you to think about and jot down answers to a series of playtesting questions.
- Overall, what were your thoughts about the game?
- Were you able to learn how to play quickly?
- What is the objective of the game?
- How would you describe the game to someone who has never played it before? What would you tell them?
- Now that you had a chance to play the game, is there any information that would have been useful to you before starting?
- Is there anything you did not like about the game? If so, what?
- Was anything confusing? Please take me through what you found to be confusing.
