Curiosity Killed the Cat / The reading view

This is where the interesting questions begin.

The appeal of “Game Design and Development: Code, Psychology and Analytics (Paperback)” starts with its focus on Books. That is fertile territory for a reader ready to move beyond collecting ideas and start making connections. Game design becomes especially engaging when an idea is tested through play. Choose a mechanic, write the experience you hope it will create, and use a small prototype to ask a more precise question. Follow the most surprising question first. Sketch an explanation, imagine an alternative, and see what you would need to distinguish them. The best part of an interesting subject is often the next question it unlocks. Pick a question. Open a book. See where it takes you.
