This is a very well structured book which, for me, as someone who played the game back in the day for more hours than I care to remember, was incredibly interesting for the first half, when presenting the story behind the formulation and development of the game, and the hardware landscape developing at the time. Alas, the second half of the book descends into code, maths, geometry and game tech that simply broke my brain. However, even just flicking through those latter pages served to convey the obvious sophistication and ingenuity behind a game now well over 25 years old but which defined a genre and still engenders devotion among many.
