SUMMARY:Game Maker's Guild October Workshop "Asymmetrical Interaction in Co-op Board Games"
DESCRIPTION:Hosted by the MIT Game Lab and the Game Maker’s Guild \nThe Game Makers Guild has a special opportunity this month. Mikael Jakobsson is a Research Scientist at the MIT Game Lab who has a longstanding professional interest in co-located collaborative games\, both video games and board games. While these games allow for unique and very rewarding gaming experiences\, they also come with some inherent pit falls that designers need to be aware of. In the case of board games\, there is a well known issue referred to as alpha gaming or quarterbacking. This issue is especially prevalent in co-op games. \nIn this workshop\, the MIT Game Lab invites the Game Makers Guild for discussion and conceptualization around the future of asymmetrical interaction modes in co-op board games. \nTo engage the participants in a practical exercise\, the format will be: begin with a short talk\, split the participants in groups\, and finish off with a discussion. \nRSVP required via the Game Maker’s Guild’s Meetup Page:\nRSVP \n!function(d\,s\,id){var js\,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];if(!d.getElementById(id)){js=d.createElement(s); js.id=id;js.async=true;js.src="https://a248.e.akamai.net/secure.meetupstatic.com/s/script/2012676015776998360572/api/mu.btns.js?id=kg9e2q2v0528f3vu7fqrg8nrbc";fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js\,fjs);}}(document\,"script"\,"mu-bootjs"); \n
