However, in terms of gaming, this can be a challenging and interesting mechanic. Charades[1], where one player tries to express a word via body language while others try to guess it, is a good example of such cases. Different from most digital co-op games, which equal communication mechanics have been widely used, we experiment with this unequal communication mechanic. Thus, we have designed a digital co-op game called Human and Dog, in which 2 avatars, a human and a dog, communicate to solve a series of puzzles with unequal communication capabilities. Ultimately, we conducted an experiment to evaluate our game. Several interesting patterns were discovered from our observation. We then concluded some design suggestions from our collected data for future reference. © Copyright 2017 ACM 978-1-4503-4676-4/17/03.Cooperative Game; Game Design; Puzzle Solving; Unequal Communication CapabilitiesMechanics; Body language; Communication capabilities; Cooperative game; Design suggestions; Game design; Puzzle Solving; Cooperative communicationconference paper10.1145/3024969.30250892-s2.0-85018548806
