Engagement Isn't a Moment. It's the Connected Experience.

A game can test well in a single session, yet break when players return. Multi-Session Playtests reveal how players re-enter, re-learn, and re-engage across a defined set of sessions exposing friction that only appears between plays, not within one.

Whether players remember systems or need to relearn them

How motivation changes once guidance and novelty reduce

Which mechanics feel clearer, deeper, or more tedious across sessions

Whether progression pacing matches player expectations
