Dallas Designer Group blind play-tests Werewolves of the Black Forest

A huge thank you to Val Teixeira, Bryn Smith, John Olson and Lindsey Rachel Rosenthal from the Dallas Designer Group for blind play-testing Werewolves of the Black Forest.

These wonderful people from half a world away offer up their time to try out games still in development. It was great to receive such detailed and candid feedback and to see new players coming to the game for the first time.

For my designer friends I can't recommend this group enough. They warn pretty clearly that they'll hold no punches, but you're going to be a better designer for receiving this kind of considered commentary from people who don't worry about your ego and have such a clear passion for games.

For everyone else, enjoy imagining me biting my nails as they find all the places where my rules aren't clear enough, or me squirming where my game doesn't do quite what I'd hoped and the occasional sigh of relief as they find things they enjoy!
