Hi everyone, I'm new here and just getting into the field of Game Design. It definetly seems like an exciting place to be and I really like this site so far.
Anyways, I was curious if anyone has read the book "The Art of Game Design" by Jesse Schell? I just picked it up from Borders today and it is a lengthy book, not to mention pricey. I grabbed it because I'm away for the weekend and I had heard this book was good and it wasn't available at stores near me. My main question about the book is this... Is the book mainly about video game design? From the cover I saw a pawn piece which made me think it was for board games, but after reading the beginning of the book, I am wondering if it has to deal alot with video game design, which I don't really care to learn right now. If anyone has any advice if it's a good book to keep or if it won't really help with board game design, I would really appreciate it.
Thanks!
Bob Jacobsen
