The Rules of the Game session returns for GDC 2026 to introduce you to new techniques for game design shared by a stellar lineup of successful designers. In this long running microtalks-style session, each designer gets 10 minutes to share a "rule" they use in designing their games, diving into detail about how and when the rule is best deployed. Each of these rules is unique to that designer's own sensibilities, presenting you with a new way to think about making games. Even though game design is a creative field where sometimes you might have to break a rule or two, this fast-paced and energizing session will leave you with plenty to think about and a new toolkit of rules you will want to apply to your own project.
