Final testing

A very important step during our final weeks was playtesting with our target group. For our playtesting we had 3 children from the age of 8 to 10 years old. We had playtesting at the mediaLAB. Before we went into testing, we set up a room where we had two cameras and the game ready. Of course we also had some drinks and snack for the children to make them as comfortable as possible. For the actual test we had a demo of the game ready, this meant we could through the cycle of our game. The cycle of the game is: Explore, select, create, reflect and share.  We went with one child at a time in the testing room, this improved their attention and focus. During testing we had the child play the game and narrate the story and their thoughts. At various points during the test we asked what they understood of the game. The results were overal positive, they had no issue controlling the game and understanding the context of the story. Some minor issues were related to the feedback in game, for instance it was not clear what the ‘notepad’ function was. We recorded the testing so that we could view it back at a later time. After the testing we had some feedback moments and discussed the results. Overal it was very fun to do this testing and we had some realy good feedback from the kids.
