(When David Caruso pops his shades on, you know<\/strong> the game just got serious).<\/p>\n Holly Gramazio<\/a> is a\u00a0game designer for\u00a0the\u00a0excellent Hide & Seek<\/a>, who make games spanning everything from live events to\u00a0museums and\u00a0mobile apps. She’ll be speaking about games in\u00a0fiction, which have an\u00a0alarming propensity to\u00a0TURN DEADLY, usually in\u00a0an\u00a0extraordinarily quick fashion. Whether they have protagonists running from real assassins or\u00a0playing against death itself for\u00a0their own soul, these lethal games often have shockingly poor design. Sometimes, they also hilariously misrepresent games or\u00a0game designers.<\/p>\n Yesterday, Holly opened a\u00a0spreadsheet up to\u00a0other game designers and\u00a0asked for\u00a0examples of\u00a0games in\u00a0fiction. In\u00a0mere hours, it had filled with around a\u00a0hundred and\u00a0fifty hilarious plot summaries, none of\u00a0which I’ll spoil here. You’re a\u00a0funny bunch. I’m looking forward to\u00a0seeing you pick them apart with Holly on\u00a0the\u00a03rd of\u00a0February.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" (When David Caruso pops his shades on, you know the game just got serious).
