Updated Game Design Project Pack

I'll be presenting at the annual MACUL conference in a couple weeks. My friend Clark Rodeffer and I will be returning to a topic we presented on in 2017--non-digital game design projects.

We are going to focus on just one game, which I called Diamonds and Stars. It's one of several Game Design Project Packs. They each involve a simple game students can learn and play within one class period. Then resources are provided that allow the students to apply a theme to the game based on what they're studying in class. Through discussing and exploring the content, they delve into the material to form connections that fits the gameplay.

The full Diamond and Stars Project Pack can be found here

Here's the video that shows how to play:

And here is the Diamonds and Stars Planning Sheet, which requires the students to discuss the lesson content and use it to add a theme to the game.

Here's the page with all the other base games you can use for these projects.
