for some reason I am really interested in game design at the moment so I decided to create a new category in my blog and share some links.

For a start here is a game I found on Sirlin.net. It is called “Don’t look back” and is demonstrating what I think is the core of game design. As summarised by someone “fun derives from exploring new puzzles and combinations that offer patterns that the brain doesn’t master yet and needs to discover and learn.” (“The Theory of fun” by Raph Koster, Chief Cretive Officer of Sony Entertainment)
