★★★★★

Game Design and Development: Code, Psychology and Analytics (Paperback) offers a compelling take on games, though not without flaws. While the treatment of Computers & Technology is excellent, I found the sections on programming less convincing. The author makes some bold claims about psychology that aren't always fully supported. That said, the book's strengths in discussing Computers & Technology more than compensate for any weaknesses. Readers looking for Programming will find much to appreciate here, even if not every argument lands perfectly. Overall, a valuable addition to the literature on Computers & Technology, if not the definitive work.

I absolutely loved Game Design and Development: Code, Psychology and Analytics (Paperback)! It completely changed my perspective on games. At first I wasn't sure about psychology, but by chapter 3 I was completely hooked. The way the author explains analytics is so clear and relatable - it's like they're talking directly to you. I've already recommended this to all my friends who are interested in game analytics. What I appreciated most was how the book made games feel so accessible. I'll definitely be rereading this one - there's so much to take in!
