Play testers required for browser strategy game
Worldwide
I'm building a series of short browser strategy games (each plays in about 10-20 minutes, on phone and on desktop) that teach the ideas of classic books through play. I need fresh-eyes players to try them and tell me the honest truth: what's confusing, what's boring, what's fun, and whether you'd keep playing. Being upfront: this is an early-stage, self-funded project with NO revenue yet. The budget is modest and the task is simple. What I can offer is steady, ongoing work (I have several games to test) for people who give sharp, specific feedback. What you'd do, per game: - Play it cold, with NO instructions from me first. - Record your screen and talk out loud while you play (say what you expect, what confuses you, what you like). - Fill out a short feedback form afterward (about 10 minutes). Looking for someone who: - Has a smartphone AND a computer (I need both mobile and desktop feedback). - Is fluent in English and can explain their thinking clearly. - Will be blunt and honest, I want real criticism, not flattery. - Enjoys games, puzzles, or learning (a plus, not required). - Can screen-record (phone screen recording + a free tool like Loom on desktop). Deliverables per game: one screen recording (with your voice) + the completed feedback form. To apply, please answer these so I know you read this: 1. What phone and computer will you test on? 2. Have you done any game or app testing before? Briefly. 3. In one sentence: what makes a game confusing to a first-time player? I'll start with a small paid trial of 1-2 games, and continue with testers who give clear, specific feedback.
