RE: Thoughts on Win Conditions

avatar

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

Because every game, for it to be a game (ie ipso facto), has a "win condition", the conditions around which a winner is determined, and the game ends.

Incorrect, sandbox games don't have win conditions but they are games nonetheless.

I believe these would fall under my comments about #ogc gaming, something like

"Choose your own win condition".

When ever I play minecraft with a group, invariably somebody asks some version of,

"What are we trying to do?"

Because minecraft is a sandbox that gives you tools to create a win condition yourself. (Mobs, items, whatever)

But let's inspect a game like Universe Sandbox, where you clearly can't create a win condition because there is no tools given to you to do such a thing.
