Game design is interesting, fun but at the same time, not an easy task. In this playlist, you will get familiar with the essential elements of the Game. Keep in mind that there are many approaches used to design games.
It consists of several elements that are essential in the game:
- Game goal
- Dynamics (Pattern of Play)
- Mechanics
- Rules
- Theme (where/ when the action is taking place)
- Game materials (map, cards, dice and etc.)
You can start your game design journey at any place, there is no right or wrong starting point. It usually depends on your needs and the first ideas.
