In a chapter from a book called Fundamentals of Game Design, 3rd Edition, the author dives deep into what makes certain players enjoy a game. The experiences a person wants to have are decided by the unique characteristics of that person, and this chapter explains how these characteristics can be matched to game design choices. For example, a person who is agreeable is likely to enjoy games which spotlight social harmony or cooperation.
