Designing User Interfaces to Simulation Games.
A summary of Will Wright's talk, by Don Hopkins.



Will Wright, the designer of
SimCity,
SimEarth, SimAnt, and other popular games
from Maxis, gave a talk at Terry Winnograd's user interface class at
Stanford.

He reflected on the design of simulators and user interfaces in
SimCity, SimEarth, and SimAnt. He demonstrated several of his games,
including his current project, Dollhouse.

the user interface, and the user's model.
