Excerpt

游戏概念设计

决定做成什么游戏，不写代码或功能愿望清单。

读取 concept-method.md。输入必须包含 SOURCE_BIBLE.md 与 PRODUCT_BRIEF.md；缺 SOURCE_BIBLE 就停止并说明缺游戏化拆解，缺 PRODUCT_BRIEF 就停止并要求先过需求 intake，不代替总入口推进其他阶段。

产物语言由 PRODUCT_BRIEF.md 锁定；未锁定时跟随对话语言，不默认产出中文。

行业锚定

产品框架以 PRODUCT_BRIEF.md 记录的全部产品维度为准，intake 阶段已锁定，直接继承，不重猜、不静默改；记 N/A 的维度也是锁定值，不自行补默认。受众画像（硬核度 / 性别向 / 玩家动机原型）是决策密度、UI 密度、单局时长与教学强度的标尺，本阶段继承并落地，不在概念里另起一套。本阶段只在这个框架内把它落成一页可指导取舍的产品定义：玩家是谁、在既定主类型下的具体子类型、3 条体验支柱、明确非目标和最大未知。体验支柱必须能指导取舍，例如“预读后改写敌方结果”，不能写“沉浸、史诗、精致”。每条支柱都要配一个可观察的可玩证据和一个会否决它的失败现象。若发现 PRODUCT_BRIEF 的某项与原作适配明显冲突，回总入口显式修订，不在本阶段擅自更改。

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
