Short Description:
Legacy board games are an exciting genre, but what happens when game groups can't finish these permanently altered games? What hindrances do groups face in completing games? Our study has the answers!
Long Description:
This is a world-premiere event of preliminary findings based on empirical research on legacy games. Audiences will hear analysis based on over 120 survey responses and the coding of qualitative responses from participants. We believe the data we've collected and analyzed has value for game publishers and designers as well as for scholars of analog game studies.
This study was approved through St. John's University (Queens, NY) Institutional Review Board.
