Handling Exceptions and Complex Rules

Navigating Tricky Rules

Some games introduce exceptions or multi-layered rules that change based on other conditions. Knowing how to break these down is key.

Strategies

  • Break complex rules into parts: Tackle one piece at a time.
  • Look for triggers: Rules that only apply if something specific happens.
  • Use symbols for exceptions: Mark exceptions clearly in your diagram.

Practice Makes Perfect

The more you encounter oddball rules, the better you’ll get at translating them into manageable steps.

Examples

  • A rule that only applies if a certain group is full, requiring you to keep track of both the group size and the exception.

  • A game where a player can only join if two others are not there, making you monitor multiple conditions at once.

In a Nutshell

Complex games become manageable when you break down exceptions and multi-layered rules.
