About this course
Games design is the creative and intellectual discipline concerned with what makes a game engaging, challenging, and meaningful. It is about more than surface aesthetics; it is about systems, player psychology, the architecture of challenge and reward, and the construction of virtual worlds that people want to inhabit. Professional games designers need to think simultaneously about the experience they are creating for the player and the technical and collaborative realities of how games are made, which makes the discipline both creative and deeply practical. At Westminster you will study this three-year full-time degree, developing the creative and technical skills needed to design games across a range of platforms and genres. You will work with industry-standard tools and workflows, learning to craft engaging player experiences and to communicate design ideas through concept documentat
