  • Why too easy and too hard are both bad

Design a fair game

Game AIs playtest games so they're not too easy and not too hard — just right is the most fun.

Set the difficulty and reward, then let the AI test your game. Find the best mix!

How it works

  1. Set it up

    You set how hard the game is. And you set how big the reward is.

  2. Let the AI play

    An AI plays the game very often. It is far faster than people could ever be.

  3. Measure

    This measures how often players win. And when the game gets boring.

  4. Adjust

    You change the settings. Then it all starts again.

Guess first, then experiment

What will get you the most fun points in the AI playtest?

Tip: Too easy is boring, too hard is frustrating. Find the sweet spot.
