You may not think of Tableau as a game engine, but I’ve used it to create interactive games (such as tic-tac-toe, Star Trek, and Choose Your Own Adventure) that push the limits of what is possible while learning some very practical lessons.
In my #Data15 presentation: #GamesInTableau, I demonstrated numerous practical tips, tricks, and principles of interactivity and storytelling that can be applied to any dashboard. Some of the principles are simple, others are complex, but everyone can come away with something that can be applied to their Tableau work.
The recording of the session will be made available by Tableau, but in the meantime here are the slides and workbooks I used:
The ppt slide and workbook link are no longer available. Can send to me?
