RPG Design Workshop: From Concept to Combat in Three Hours

> Brenda Romero (Romero Games)

The RPG Design Workshop takes designers from concept through to a fully functional RPG in the space of just three hours. Working together in groups of three to four, designers collaborate to determine character, conflict and setting while practicing iterative and emergent system design. Players constrain the core, take risks toward rewarding play, and push the boundaries of “what if?” in search of new gameplay experiences. Brenda Romero has worked on RPGs for over twenty years, including titles in the seminal Dungeons & Dragons and Wizardry series. This workshop has been offered at many universities and companies worldwide.
