# Pattern Language for Game Design - Christopher Barney
Published: 2020 by CRC Press

**Author**: [[Chris Barney]]
A book building upon [[Christopher Alexander]]'s work on [[Design Patterns]] and applying them to [[Gamedev]] and [[Game Design]].
It seems very geared towards exercises, practice and pedagogy, but sports a solid first background section. This sounds like a book I would like quite a bit.
