This assessment analyzed my opinions about different kinds of games. This assessment took into consideration what makes me interested in a game. This involved myself answering prompts about how things such as design, theme, goal, gameplay, and more affect my interest in a game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The\nresults of this assessment indicate that I prefer games that involve Conflict\nand Social Manipulation the most when compared with games involving\ncharacteristics such as Strategy, Aesthetics, Social Fun, and others. The\nfollowing are my results for each of the eight categories in order of the\nlowest to the highest percentage match, and the number designates to what\npercent I fit into the category:&nbsp;\nImmersion, 12%; Discovery, 14%; Cooperation, 20%; Aesthetics, 22%;\nSocial Fun, 27%; Strategy, 38%; Conflict, 68%; and Social Manipulation, 74%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; I\nthink these results are interesting. I would agree with many of my results.\nThings like Aesthetics (22%) are not very important to me in games. While\nAesthetics are nice and make a game more appealing, a game does not need to\nhave superb Aesthetics for me to enjoy it. On the higher end, I would also\nagree about my Social Manipulation percentile (74%). I really enjoy games that\ninvolve independent thinking and forcing players to think about how they can\noutsmart and overcome other players. My favorite game is The Resistance, which\nI feel falls into this category of having to outsmart other players. I was\nsurprised that my score for Strategy, 38%, was as low as it is. I would have\nexpected myself to get a higher percentile. Similar to Social Manipulation, I\nenjoy games that force me to think about the gameplay. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"> \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I appreciate that this website was brought to my attention. I think it is really cool how this website analyzed my preferences for games. I would say that overall, and for the most part, this assessment accurately portrays who I am as a gamer!
