What type of gamer are you?

Post by (-_-) »

I'm taking a fundamentals of game design class in university right now and our professor had us take a survey that categorizes you into what type of games and experiences from games that you enjoy. Then we are getting paired up with someone from each category into a full group to do a project. Some of the questions I find difficult to answer because I feel the answers to be more complex than the options they give, but it's interesting enough. It's quick and only four pages. What type of gamers are you guys, and are the results pretty accurate?

My result was seeker, then seeker-socialiser.
"You like finding strange and wonderful things or finding familiar things as well as hanging around with people you trust and helping others"

Your BrainHex Class is Daredevil.

Your BrainHex Sub-Class is Daredevil-Socialiser.

You like rushing around at heights or high speed while you are still in control as well as hanging around with people you trust and helping people.

According to your results, there are few play experiences that you strongly dislike.

Your scores for each of the classes in this test were as follows:

Daredevil: 18
Socialiser: 18
Conqueror: 16
Survivor: 12
Seeker: 9
Mastermind: 6
Achiever: 2

Interesting test. In my case, very accurate (when relating to gaming). When you finish the quiz, things can be clicked on for more information and explanation. The deeper explanation was also very accurate.

"Your BrainHex Class is Achiever.
Your BrainHex Sub-Class is Achiever-Mastermind.

You like collecting anything you can collect or doing everything you possibly can as well as solving puzzles and devising strategies.

Each BrainHex Class also has an Exception, which describes what you dislike about playing games. Your Exceptions are:


» No Mercy: You rarely if ever care about hurting other players' feelings - mercy is for the weak!
» No Pressure: You dislike being asked to perform under pressure, preferring to take your time so you can make the right decision.

Your scores for each of the classes in this test were as follows:


Achiever: 20
Mastermind: 18
Seeker: 14
Conqueror: 4
Survivor: 3

I would say that it's pretty accurate as far as what it says, though it doesn't quite cover every aspect of my gaming personality

More conquerors so far. I wonder how imbalanced the groups will be in class.

Well, considering that I wish I were a Viking, this worked out about right.

The only way to deactivate the ray beam and fight back the vampire alien threat is with a complicated series of foot patterns on the device's control board that looks remarkably like a DDR pad. We will all praise this man for saving our lives and buy him a mountain of stuffed animals.
