+## Key Points
+
+- **Background**: EFL contexts require instructors to create opportunities for natural or improvised communication which can reflect ‘real world’ conversations.
+- **Aim**: We aimed to improve on a small talk strategies non-game technique with a game-based technique for EFL contexts.
+- **Methods**: We developed and deployed a game-based technique using a playtesting approach.
+- **Results**: Positive findings (game affordances and pedagogical potential) are preliminary and descriptive in nature. Interaction constructs are proposed to guide future research.
+- **Conclusion**: Small talk strategies practice with a game-based technique shows promising pedagogical potential, but further verification is required.
