🌪️ How We Collaborate
At Dice Peak, we stand beside game creators throughout their journey — offering structure, insight, and thoughtful support to bring their vision to life. From the first prototype to the final version, our goal is to help you develop a game that feels clear, balanced, and rewarding.
🚀 Getting Started: The Core Playtest
Our collaboration begins with a structured Core Playtest Report. After reviewing your game, we provide detailed feedback on ten key areas that may require adjustments, additions, or removals. These may include rule clarity, player experience, balance, downtime, decision-making flow, component interaction, and more.
Each point is presented with clear explanation and actionable suggestions. It’s not just about pointing out issues — it’s about helping you move forward confidently.

🔹 Modular Services that Grow with Your Game
After the core playtest, we offer additional testing and analysis services tailored to your needs:
- ✅ Advanced Balancing Sessions
- ✅ Blind Playtesting
- ✅ Component & Card Interaction Reviews
- ✅ Rulebook Clarity and Usability Feedback
- ✅ Targeted Issue Testing (based on designer input)
Services can be repeated or targeted depending on the development stage and challenges of your game. We understand that design is a process — and we’re here to support each iteration.
🔍 What We Need to Begin
To carry out effective playtesting, we require:
- 📄 A complete rulebook (in Word or PDF)
- 📦 All components in printable format
- 📃 An Excel file listing all cards or item data
This ensures our team can fully engage with your game and offer relevant, in-depth feedback.
🧐 How Our Process Works
- Our team tests independently, without designer intervention, unless a video call is scheduled for briefing.
- Services are flexible in duration (from a few days to 1–2 weeks), depending on game complexity.
- All clients receive structured reports, direct observations, and solution-oriented feedback.
- We work under a basic confidentiality agreement to protect your game and ideas.
