Case Study - Wargroove
Why Case Study?
Following a case study is not the same as copying a game. In fact, case studies can be very helpful for students who are new to game development as they provide guidance and support throughout the design and development process. By studying professional games, students can learn valuable skills and techniques that they can then apply to their own projects.
Why Wargroove?
The studio is interested in developing online multiplayer and turn-based strategy games. Wargroove is a perfect mix of both! Additionally, it is cost-effective for the studio, making it accessible to everyone.
