In this session, players have been asked to complete task by using Google Form(figure 1). 

Figure 1: Google form which to get feedbacks from players

Player have to answer first three task by choosing success or failed options. HangerSNAKE is a single player game which allow user to eat up the correct letters to try to guess the correct letters. Some changes has been made from last testing session such as I have change the score to life. Additionally, game has also change to snake will be decrease one segment when they hit on a wrong letters instead of adding one segment to the snake when they eat the correct letter. 

Figure 2: Snake box with two sticks

Player is required to use two sticks to tap the snake box(figure 2). The first task is to let the player use stick to change the direction of the snake using snack box. Every player has successfully change the direction in this testing session. The second task is to let player to eat up some letters which is to testing snake's flexibility. Every player has also complete this task successfully. The third question is to test whether the player think it is an easy game to play or not with this kind of physical interaction. In a scale 1 to 10 which 1 means the game is difficult to play and 10 means the game is easy to play. The average scale was 4.75 out of 10. In other words, the physical interaction is not so flexible and the players seems a bit confusing while using stick to control top and left direction.

Therefore, other way of physical implementation need to be changed to make it more suite for player interaction with the game. However, every player seems to enjoy the way of physical interaction implemented using makey makey. Some player has suggest to make the game more slower, or maybe make the controller more flexible for user to move the snake. 

In conclusion, the testing session is quite successful, and user has competed almost every task in the game. However, some improvements need to be changed in the future testing.
