Simulation Game Design--A Philosophic Dilemma
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Easterly, Jean L. – Simulation and Games, 1978
Two approaches are described with their philosophic implications: building a model as preliminary to simulation game design, and discovering a model after the game has been developed. A third alternative presented attempts to span the chasm created by the first two and integrate both design processes. (VT)

Format for the Game--Logic or Intuition?
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Duke, Richard D. – Simulation and Games, 1980
Presents nine steps for game design, and discusses why particular formats were used in the design of five games: CONRAIL Railroad Deregulation, Montauk Exercise, Geothermal Energy, Simulated Nutrition System, and Human Settlement. (CMV)

A Paradigm for Game Design.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Duke, Richard D. – Simulation and Games, 1980
Presents a nine-step process for designing simulation games for use by real-world clients in actual policymaking situations. For example, this design model could be used to produce a game for railroad company executives needing to explore the probable impact of railroad deregulation on its operation. (LLS)

Toward a Simulation Games Classification and Game Dialogue Types.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Kryukov, M. M.; Kryukova, L. I. – Simulation and Games, 1986
Describes the basis for a simulation game classification based on the game image, which is created against a foundation of events that occur during the course of the game. Three characteristics of the game image--reflection of reality, dialog, and motivation--are defined, and game dialog types are discussed in detail. (MBR)

Group Dynamics and Game Design: Some Reflections.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Greenblat, Cathy Stein – Simulation and Games, 1980
Recommends that group dynamics factors in simulation and gaming be given more consideration, and suggests some possible applications of knowledge in group dynamics when designing and using games. (CMV)

The Paradox Game: Identifying and Overcoming Untenable Interactions.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Pettegrew, Loyd S. – Simulation and Games, 1979
Explores many facets of paradoxical communication in interpersonal encounters; and presents a structured interpersonal exercise which provides students with experiential learning in how to identify and deal effectively with many subtle manifestations of paradoxical communication. (Author/CMV)

The Motivation Game: Effecting Social Behavior in Small Groups.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Tafoya, Dennis W. – Simulation and Games, 1979
Describes a simulation exercise designed to illustrate the effects of incentives on individual and group behavior. Examination of game-generated data suggests that the schemes affect both individual and group behavior. (Author/CMV)
