Hi
Recently got involved in a playtest. Is there any standard report format recommended?
Stefan
I am not sure there is a "standard".
Some publishers have their own templates they provide to play testers.
Personally speaking from my own limited experience, I want to know:
1. Did it play well for you?
2. enjoyment factor ?
3. would you play it again?
4. was it broken - did you find a foolproof tactic for a one sided win ratio?
5. Was it clear, and easy to understand?
6. was too complicated?
7. was it functioning within the realm of KISS principle? do you have any recommendations as to how to make it easier to understand?
8. Who do you think it favors?
9. How would you suggest balancing it?
10. a short AAr of the general flow - was there any anomalies that threw the results in your opinion ( i.e. 6 snakeyes in a row, etc)
If you answer those, then by gosh you are one darn good play tester in my book, and HIGHLY appreciated by me.
