This is the must-have book for anyone in game design. For me personally, the book highlighted many fundamental aspects of game design I didn't realize I didn't know, even though I consider myself a fairly experienced game designer.
The book is fun to read. The author has a very engaging writing style, and interesting and relevant examples makes the subject matter of each chapter very easy to relate to.
The book is well designed to bring even a novice very quickly up to speed, yet it's also a fantastic resource for experienced game designers, covering just about everything that matters in modern game design.
The idea of lenses as game design tools really resonated with me. The book contains 100 lenses that are different angles or aspects of how you can view your game, posing poignant questions that help to easily cut to the essence of the decisions you've made or will be making in designing your game.
If you ever buy a book on game design, make it this one. You won't regret it.Get more detail about The Art of Game Design: A book of lenses.
