Stage & Arena

Situation institutional · strong

Stage & Arena (in front of an audience) is playing at a tournament, e-sports event, game fair or theatre performance: ludic exerience becomes a performance, spectators are part of the situation.

Design question – Can spectators follow the course of ludic experience, and is the format exciting to watch under performance pressure?

Reference example – League of Legends World Championship: thousands in the hall, millions on the stream. Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?: the studio, the audience, the lifeline. Football: the Champions League final with floodlights, anthem and video review.
