Note
Definition

The think-aloud protocol is a usability testing method that helps uncover a player's thought process while interacting with a game. Users verbally express their thoughts, feelings, and actions in real time, providing valuable insights into their cognitive processes, decision-making, and problem-solving strategies.

The think-aloud protocol helps identify usability issues, misunderstandings, and points of confusion. By gaining a deeper understanding of the user's perspective, designers can make informed improvements to enhance the overall gaming experience.
