Students will learn about the wide array of rules that exist in games. With the partnership of a group, they’ll create a comprehensive strategy guide to their own game with all of the possible scenarios and conditionals for each. The session will end with a written game of Calvinball as another hands-on exploration of the way rules shape games.
