Summary

Turn a vague feature idea or design direction into a clear game design goal with purpose, scope, fit, success criteria, and constraints. Use when a feature sounds promising but fuzzy, when a team cannot explain why something should exist, when success is unclear, or when a concep

9	## What to produce
10
11	Generate:
12	1. Goal statement - what the feature is meant to achieve
13	2. Purpose - why it should exist
14	3. Fit - how it connects to the rest of the game
15	4. Success criteria - player-facing and KPI-facing signals
16	5. Constraints - quality, scope, time, and resource limits
17
18	## Process
19
20	### 1. Clarify purpose
21	Ask:
22	- what problem does this solve
23	- what player behavior should change
24	- what player need or business need it serves
25
26	### 2. Check game fit
27	Ask:
28	- how it connects to existing loops and systems
29	- what player expectations it should meet
30	- what it must not break or dilute
31
32	### 3. Define success
33	Use a SMART-style lens:
34	- Specific - clear feature vision
35	- Measurable - success signals or KPIs
36	- Attainable - feasible with current constraints
37	- Relevant - connected to strategy and player value
38	- Time-boxed - aligned to a release or milestone
39
40	### 4. Write the framed goal
41	Use a compact format such as:
42
43	Goal statement
44	We want to [player or business outcome] by introducing or changing [feature or system], measured by [signals], within [timeframe].

61	- ...
62
63	## Fast mode
64	- What is this feature for?
65	- How should it help the player or the game?
66	- What would success look like?
67	- What constraints matter most?
68
69	## Working principle
70
71	A feature without a clear goal is just a vague wish wearing design clothes.
