The Memoirs of Sid Mayer! Content introduction
This is the career memoir of legendary game designer Sid Mayer. In the form of a chronicle, Sid Mayer recalls the thinking, trial and error process of founding a game studio and making each game, and shares his game concept and creation experience. At the same time, Sid Mayer interspersed the development of the game industry in the United States, sharing his thoughts on the psychology of gamers, the operation of the game industry, and other game designers.
In the 1980s, before personal computers were popular, Sid Mayer was involved in the new field of computer game design, and his personal career coincided with the rise and development of the global computer game industry, so this book is also an interesting history of computer games.
