Simple-introduce variability by adding dice!Gamification isn't a new idea, but applying some principles of gamification to a traditional tabletop exercise can breathe new life into a potentially monotonous activity. This book covers how to build a gamified tabletop exercise from the ground up, and provides example exercises you can build upon for your own needs. Not only will participation improve, but you will have reusable exercises to work with as each walk-through can produce different results, helping to cover multiple outcomes when testing your recovery capabilities.By providing examples and a methodical approach on how to build gamification into a traditional tabletop, the goal is to provide a new perspective on tabletop exercises that should be more engaging for all participants, and thus more beneficial for everyone involved.
