Multi-Session
Playtests
See what sticks when players come back and what quietly fades. Bring the same players back across a few focused sessions to validate learning, pacing, and consistency beyond first impressions.
Check what players remember between sessions
Validate tutorials, early progression, and feature adoption
Spot friction that repeats, not just first-session noise
Test builds without long-term commitment

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
Test the First-Session Moments That Set Retention
