4/20 player test#2( play testing session with participants who are not enrolled in the class)
Spencer (external playtester) and Kevin (co-designer) set up their opponent's board by creating a maze.
|
Once all the pathways have been placed and the maze is completed, Spencer decides where to put labyrinth tokens, entrances, obstacles, sabotages, and the exit.
|
The opposing team, Jackson (co-designer) and Darren (external playtester) set up a second maze which will be switched with Spencer and Kevin.

After the playtest, we asked our playtesters to map our game on a Procedural Chart and compare our games elements to other well-known games. The red dots indicate playertester plots.
Flipping the tiny 1"x1" tiles was tedious so one of our playtesters put a ring of double sided tape around his finger so that he could better pick up the pieces without disturbing the rest of the game board.
Close up of a problem we encountered with the tiles themselves. It was not made clear to the playtesters that there was a difference between connecting tiles and dead end tiles. Dead end tiles have a border and connecting pieces do not.
