Today's Critical Thought looks at the challenge of measuring how long a game should be. Some titles seem to last too long; others never seem to get going. The challenge from the game designer's side is to properly grow the mechanics and test the player on their use. I also talked about general vs. unique mechanics and how much you can get out of them.
