UX Game Lab Playtesting

Conduct in-person research studies, from advanced setups to biometric testing, with complete confidentiality.

Your Dedicated Lab for Secure Playtests

 

Welcome to our Barcelona-based UX Game Lab – a dedicated space where game development meets in-person user research.

Designed for game studios of all sizes, our lab offers the unique opportunity for live playtesting, allowing you to observe real player interactions and gather actionable feedback in a secure, controlled environment.

With cutting-edge industry practices and a flexible setup, each session is tailored to uncover valuable insights that drive game optimization and boost player retention.

Why In-Lab Testing?

 

A research study conducted inside a UX Game Lab requires in-person attendance from all the participants. 

This approach can offer game-changing advantages for studios and publishers:

 

  • Enhanced security & confidentiality: all sessions are moderated by our in-house UX team, with the game being only accessible on the lab’s premises

 

  • Controlled environment: offer a distraction-free setting that standardizes testing conditions, leading to more focused and reliable data

 

  • Real-time observation: witness firsthand player reactions and behaviors during their gameplay

 

  • Comprehensive data collection: gather Game Lab exclusive feedback that can include biometric tracking, as well as in-person sessions interviews and focus groups

 

  • Customized testing scenarios: tailor testing environment and methodology based on your specific research requirements  

 

A Flexible Setup for Your Research Needs

A layout of the UX Game Lab

 

We pride ourselves on adapting to your unique research needs.

This is reflected in our UX Game Lab’s design, which aims to offer flexible player setups depending on your preferred research methodology.

The layout consists of:

  • Two rooms with 6 player capacity
  • One room with 10 player capacity
  • Monitoring room to supervise and communicate with players 
  • A dedicated player interview & focus group room

 

Hence, we can adapt to any research study, be it single player, multiplayer or other. Additionally, we support multiple platform playtesting including PC, mobile and options for console

For PC-based playtests, we offer powerful builds with high specs, including 32GB RAM and Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 TI, to handle any game requirements.

 

Safety Measures (Offline Testing)

 

For some research studies, security is not a luxury but a necessity.

Conducting the playtest in a dedicated Game Lab maximizes the level of protection and confidentiality for your project. 

At Antidote, we ensure that every aspect of your game remains under wraps until you’re ready to unveil it to the world.

Our commitment to security includes:

 

1. Strict Access Control

A robust access control system paired with an alarm and video security ensures that only authorized personnel can enter the premises, safeguarding your game’s secrets.


2. Confidentiality Protocols

We utilize rigorous access registration, offer allocated lockers for participant’s sensitive equipment and require NDA signage alongside the on-site ID verification process. 


3. Diligent Monitoring

Our facility includes a dedicated monitoring room, allowing for real-time analysis and oversight of playtesting PCs to prevent any unauthorized access or data breaches.


4. PC Security 

We employ digital safeguards including disk encryption, anti-malware software and firewall, ensuring the integrity of all playtest sessions. 

 

With these measures, rest assured that your game’s secrets are safe and will stay behind the closed doors.
