Once you have all of the basics assembled for your prototype, you can start testing the game to see how it plays. Before trying it out on a group, play it by yourself. Play through the game as each player and record any positives or negatives you notice as you play.  Solo test your game several times. Adjust the number of “players” as you do to determine whether or not your game actually supports the minimum and maximum number of players. Find flaws in your game by trying to break it while solo testing. See if it’s possible for players to always win with a specific strategy, or if there are loopholes in the rules that create an unfair advantage. After you’ve solo played your game enough to work out most of the kinks, it’s time to playtest. Gather some friends or family and explain that you’d like them to test your game. Let them know that it's a work in progress and that you’d appreciate any feedback.  During playtesting, avoid adding any additional explanations. You won’t always be able to clarify the rules. Take notes while the game is being played. Be alert for times people don’t seem to be having fun or the rules get confusing. You’ll likely need to improve these areas. Pay attention to players’ ending position. If one player is consistently ahead of the other players, there's probably an unfair advantage. Everyone approaches games differently, and some might see things missing that you wouldn’t have realized on your own. The more people you get to test your game, the more opportunities you’ll have to find flaws or weak points and fix them.  Local hobby and game shops often have community games nights. These events are the perfect place to try out your game and get the opinions of veteran board gamers. A player’s age will likely impact how they approach your game. Try out the game with your younger siblings and grandparents to test its age appropriateness. As you finish each playtest, make necessary changes or adjustments to your game board, rules, and/or other components. As you continue to test, keep track of the features that you’ve changed. Some “improvements” may end up hurting more than helping.
