MDA Framework

Mechanics, Dynamics, and Aesthetics

• M – Mechanics: the rules and systems that create the play we experience/ the math for how shooting works 
• D – Dynamics:  dynamics are the actual experience you’ll play those mechanics come together to create/ the running and gunning 
  A – Ascetics: are the underlying emotive reasons we go to that game/ the challenge or the fantasy

Eight Type of Aesthetics

1. Sensation (Game as sense-pleasure): Player experiences something completely unfamiliar.
2. Fantasy (Game as make-believe): Imaginary world.
3. Narrative (Game as drama): A story that drives the player to keep coming back
4. Challenge (Game as obstacle course): Urge to master something. Boosts a game’s replayability.
5. Fellowship (Game as social framework): A community where the player is an active part of it. Almost exclusive for multiplayer games.
6. Discovery (Game as uncharted territory): Urge to explore game world.
7. Expression (Game as self-discovery): Own creativity. For example, creating character resembling player’s own avatar.
8. Submission (Game as pastime): Connection to the game, as a whole, despite of constraints.
