Abstract

As games become more and more pervasive in our modern society and game design and development programs get implemented in Universities and Colleges throughout the world, having a set of well defined methodologies for teaching students how to analyze and understand games become of paramount importance. Starting from the well known MDA model, the present article introduces an original approach particularly suitable for a teaching environment where we want to guide students and beginning game designers in the process of formalizing their ideas in a coherent and consistent fashion.
