3. Reflection: 

This module provided me with valuable insights into the systematic process of creating a game. Despite the normal lecture-based class, this module emphasised learning via play, engaging discussions, and hands-on experiences.  The task of creating a new game inspired by a forgotten traditional game was especially meaningful. The journey began with ideation, followed by drafting, prototyping, and finally execution. Throughout the process, we engaged in multiple discussions and reached agreements, with each team member's opinions and suggestions playing a crucial role.

As a cultural enthusiast, I appreciated the opportunity to learn about Peranakan culture through field research—one of my favorite parts of the process. It was an amazing experience to gain insights directly from the expert. Another important lessons I learned was understanding the value of playtesting. Developing a good game structure and set of rules requires multiple iterations, adjustments, and thorough testing to achieve a polished final product. It was also satisfied to see the final printing product with the logo design I made. 

I am deeply grateful to my teammates for making this journey productive and enjoyable, especially our capable group leader, who put in great effort and ensured that everything ran smoothly. In short, this module provided me with a rewarding and enjoyable learning experience.
