Learn the art and science of game design

During this one-day creative course you will be introduced to the fundamentals of tabletop game design. You will learn about a variety of game mechanics and have the opportunity to make your own, drawing inspiration from the British Library’s building and archives. You will learn how to playtest your game and how to ensure that it delivers a great experience to its target audience.

Led by game and literature specialists, Dr Sam Illingworth (Edinburgh Napier University), Dr Chloé Germaine (Manchester Met University) and Dr Paul Wake (Manchester Met University), this course will include working together with your fellow participants, sharing feedback, and developing a prototype game to take home.
