Episode details
Comments

This episode of Metric is about tabletop game design and play testing. Enter the awkward ass world of Michael explaining to Tim his slack-based Dungeons & Dragons campaign. Hear Tim's crazy interesting foray into play testing and its cross-overs with user onboarding. In addition to the banter, we touch on:

  • NUIs: natural user interfaces

  • lessons learned by other industries about how games onboard users

  • Tom Hanks in Mazes and Monsters
