PLAYTEST & REPORT
ROLE
Planning, running and reporting about a playtest for the game Overlord Fellowship of Evil.
DESCRIPTION
For this project we were asked to pair up and choose a game with a MetaCritic score of less than 56. We were then asked to imagine that the game had not been released and the publisher had wanted us to develop and run a playtest for a section of the game. For this project my group member and I developed surveys for both before and after the test itself, planned and wrote a script for the playtest, found willing testers, ran and moderated the playtest itself, and then collated all of the data into a final report. The report consisted of our plans and objectives for this playtest, as well as data from the surveys, in game observations, and recommendations for how to improve the experience based on our observations. I have attached the full report below if you want to see for yourself
