I would describe gameplay design as the actual execution and concepts of the gameplay rather than how fun it is to play/how entertaining the gameplay is (that's what the first category is for).

For example, you could have:
- Really well designed puzzle mechanics (high design) but terrible or really hard levels (low fun value)
- A clicker, which may be fun to play (high fun value), but in the end it's just a bland clicker with no other interesting concepts (low design)
- A well designed gameplay loop that keeps you engaged and very entertained (high design and high fun value),
- A game with play-to-win elements that make gameplay unbalanced and unfun for newer players (low design and low fun value).

Of course, most of this is open to the interpretation of whoever is voting and my voice isn't final, but it's that general idea that I was going for when I added the category to the rubric.
