I acquired this book expecting a how-to, hands-on guide for actual or aspiring game designers. What I got instead was a very general, rather pedestrian commentary on how great games and game design is. There are some useful bits of real and practical info scattered throughout what is basically a work of boosterism and cheer-leading for the idea of gaming and game design; but only a few bits. This book might be a useful gift to very young enthusiasts of gaming as a way of getting young gamers to begin thinking of games and game design on a more sophisticated level, as intellectual puzzles and challenges that can develop their mental skills and as potential career fields, not just as consumer products and idle distractions. Its chatty, simple prose and repetitiveness makes it ideal for that type of reader. Parents with kids who are big gamers can use it as a hook for expanding that interest into broader channels and activities. Adults interested in trying their hand at game-design, however, will find very little practical direction from this "guide."

I was expecting this book to read like a beginner's development book with examples or perhaps with some implementation discussion. The book actually focused on the idea of mobile applications as a whole with a general discussion on the pros and cons of gestures and input strategies. It was well-written and entertaining, but mostly useless as a "how-to".
