The game design masterclass
If you're near London in the UK, here's news of a couple of workshops that could be of interest: "The game design masterclass for adults and older teens is three hours of tabletop game theory and practice. James Wallis explains how games work and how to make them, and you will then work in teams to create and develop your own games, playtest other teams’ prototypes, and give and receive feedback, in a hands-on journey through the process of game creation and iteration." The upcoming classes are August 20 (tomorrow at the time of posting this) and September 10. Details here . And you can buy James Wallis's book on the recent history of board games here .
