<div style="margin: 5px 5% 10px 5%;"><img src="http://www.sickgaming.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/video-how-to-design-games-for-game-developers.jpg" width="200" height="200" title="" alt="" /></div><div><p>In this GDC 2012 talk, EA/Maxis’ Stone Librande discusses a series of card and board games he’s developed that are not only designed to entertain, but also to teach the fundamentals of game design.</p>
<p>Stone describes the evolution of the games he’s developed and talks about the underlying lessons contained in each one.</p>
<p>For example, each one of the games covers a specific topic such as writing rule systems, choosing goals, tuning opposition, or balancing asymmetric systems.</p>
<p>It was an insightful talk that’s still worth watching, so developers shouldn’t miss the opportunity to do so now that it’s <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ke_kOD2D-bs">freely available on the official GDC YouTube channel!</a></p>
