541 Design Analysis

Assignment:
-- Choose a game from the list to play and analyze – preferably one you haven’t played before.
-- Keep a “play journal” of your experience with the game.
-- Focus on choices, strategies, pleasures and other emotions that the game evokes.
--Analyze your personal reading in such a way as to understand why these moments work or don’t work to provide a successful play experience.

Format, etc.:
--7-8 pages double-spaced
--Clear, well-written, original thoughts
--Insight into your player experience
--Can include screenshots or other visualization aids.
--Please contextualize your writing so that it does not require readers to be intimately familiar with the game.
--If you want to play a game that is not on the list, please clear it with me first.
