Today, the two lower groups were going to come in and play
our game, and then give us feedback about it. We ran into a few problems before
the other groups came in, the main one being the lack of a Dice, but because
our board was set up next to a PC, we went online and found an online Dice. We
also had to really quickly make some feedback sheets, and a Damage sheet, so we
could keep track of the game easily; we also made six rulers so the game wouldn’t
take ages with them passing a ruler to one another. Because there were six of
us in our group, and it only took two to help with the game, we were told to go
and have a play with some of the other group’s games.
Matt and I spent most of
the time with Jack Walls group trying to play their game, although the people
from the lower group left after a short time. We carried on walking back to our
group every so often to see what was going on, but there wasn’t anything for us
to do. After the first group had finished their game, we came back
to the group to have a look at the feedback sheets; it was all good! We got
given 8’s and 10’s, (although I never trust user reviews for anything), so we
were all happy; until me and Matt were told by Azam, Umar and Ram that us and
Ben had to help the next group after lunch...
Ben didn’t come back after Lunch, cause he was “ill” (FIFA
13 release day), so it was just me and Matt. I was going to keep track of the
damage and health on the sheet, but as I went to sit down, it turned out Azam
had already started the game, and expected me to know what was happening, I
asked what I was meant to be doing, and Umar basically pushed me out of the way
and took over my job......so I went and played Josh’s groups game. Their game was actually really fun, and the rules worked
well, although I do think it needs to have all 6 possible players playing to
get the best game (we had 4 playing). After that, we had another walk around,
sat talking with other groups, and occasionally went back to check on our game.
After the second group had finished with our game, we went
back and checked through the feedback sheets; this time, it wasn’t so good. The
best we got was a 7, and worst was a 4; but still, overall above average scores,
so we couldn’t complain. After having a look at all the other groups boards, I don’t think
we should have made ours as big as we did, or make it purely out of the
material we did, although it seemed like a good idea at the time. Overall, I
think we did a good job as a group, and we got some very good feedback.
