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