Candy World game

First Attempt: For my game, I did not have it the first week we were doing games. So, I had a family member try it at home. They liked the game overall, but they wish I had more characters. Originally, I had two characters. The game I was going off of was Candy Land. Similar but had less rules to it. He also suggested I add more rules to the game. Unfortunately, I don’t have any pictures from the first try of my game.

Second Attempt: I was able to bring my game to class the second week we were trying them out. seems like a lot of people liked it. I noticed some people got a little confused over the rules in this one. But some requested to me that maybe in another change for the game, I added more rules to the game to make it little more engaging.

At home family answers: Questions to consider during play and answer after play.

  1. What was the most frustrating moment or aspect of what you just played? Trying to understand where to go.
  2. What was your favorite moment or aspect of what you just played? Trying to get a good card.

  5. What should be improved with the next version? Make more cards and more rules. 
  6. Describe the game in 3 words. Fun, exciting, interesting.
