Mupe Winter
Assembly Game
    User test & Observations
 Games & Storytelling Workshop
Mupe & Winter Assembly
• Mupe is an free open source client-server platform,
  the client runs on mobile phones with Java midp
• Mupe Winter Assembly is a collection of four mini
  games to be played by people attending the Winter
  Assembly at the end of April in Tampere, Finland.
• UI was quite intuitive, easy to use after a few minutes
• Nice to be able to chat with other players
• Seeing the HiScores encouraged competition
• Good to be able to give feedback & share Mupe with
  others
Hi-Lo (1 Player)
• Number guessing game: is the unknown number
  higher or lower than the 5 numbers shown?
• Need to read the ‘Help’ section
• Easy to play, no special skills required
• Ok, but least exciting of all four games
    • Could be a time killer, waiting for bus, etc...
Piper (2p)
• Connect the next pipe piece to your pipe network, try
  to block the other player’s progress
• Exciting, fast paced
• Time penalty when swapping an unsuitable pipe, and
  time limit for inaction lead to tension
• Don’t need to be facing the other player, can be
  played remotely without affecting the playing
  experience
Dung Beetle (2p)
• Try to roll the balls of dung into your own chambers,
  bite your opponent to momentarily stun him
• Exciting, fast paced
• Uncertainty when dung will come, leads to players
  chasing each other to stun each other
• Don’t need to be facing the other player, but it’s good
  fun to hear the other player’s reactions
Indian Poker (2p)
• Each player sees the others player’s card and mood,
  has to guess if his is better than the other player’s.
• Intuitive UI if you know poker terms
• Nice to express your mood with colours, three
  buttons to change mood: happy, neutral, angry
• Good fun to play when physically facing the other
  player, social
