This document provides guidance on using feedback to improve a game review section. It outlines the key areas of the review to focus on: review, strengths, weaknesses, expected and actual testing outcomes, and immediate and future improvements. The review should evaluate what went well and what didn't for the intended target audience. Testing must validate the game meets requirements and identify any fixes. Suggested improvements should enhance the game. Using feedback from a previous review, the task is to strengthen the review section, testing plan, and proposed improvements.

 It is very important that your test plan checks that your game
meets the original requirements of the client brief.
 The text plan must include details on
what you expect to happen when
you test each item and what actually
happens in each case.
 The testing should also identify any
improvements that you can make
with re-tests must be carried out on
anything that didn’t work.

 The final section of your review links together the two previous
ones by identifying improvements that could be made.
 The first part should state what you
could improve immediately to make
the game better with an explanation
of how it would make it better.
 The second part should say what you
would change in future again saying
how each would improve the game.
 Your test plan and review may both
suggest improvements for this part.
