Foundation & Academia

Machinations was originally developed as an academic product by Joris Dormans during his PhD at the University of Amsterdam. Together with Ernest Adams, he co-authored “Game Mechanics: Advanced Game Design”. The book teaches you to craft mechanics that generate challenging, enjoyable, and well-balanced gameplay and we strongly recommend a copy.
