New Games Notebook

We always have several game designs in progress at any given time. I will try to post progress on at least a few of them as they get to a stage that is more than just a concept.

Objective

Design new games or game systems that provide a fun, interesting, highly interactive experience. In this process I expect to post:

• A description and evaluation of the game/system concept.
• Iteratively look for and report what is working and what needs work.
• A description and rationale of each “improvement.”
• The evaluation – redesign – playtest cycle for major changes.
• Any tools that I use or create in the process.
• A description with rules and PnP files (as appropriate) of the “final” product.

Hopefully, you will find this discovery process interesting and maybe even gain some inspiration from it.
