Priyanshu Sharma –
Loved the global perspective! Some games were unfamiliar, which was a plus. Could have used more visuals.
Vaishnavi Sanjay Bhandari –
A fun and informative read! Learned a lot and was entertained along the way.
Anuj Sahu –
I expected more depth. It felt more like a survey than an in-depth analysis. Somewhat superficial.
Simran Khurana –
A fun concept, but some of the math got a bit dense. Still, a fascinating look at the games we love.
Suzal Raj –
Good concept, but felt a bit repetitive at times. Not sure I learned anything profoundly new, still a decent read.
Shahbaaz Khan –
A fascinating journey through the world of games. The author’s passion shines through on every page.

Enjoyed learning about the history and math behind popular games. Some explanations were overly complicated though.
Thangbiaklian Nunthuk –
Not bad, but not great. Worth a read if you are bored, I guess. I found it repetitive and predictable.
Karan Shaileshbhai Shah –
A great gift for anyone interested in games and math. Well-written and easy to understand, for the most part.
Rishabh Singh –
Interesting idea, but I found it a bit dry. Not the most engaging read, even for a game enthusiast.
Venkata Pratik Theegala –
This book opened my eyes to the hidden mathematical structures in games. I’ll never play the same way again!

Disappointing. Expected more insights and less technical jargon. Hard to follow if you are not from math background

Prashik Sheshrao Wankhade –
Informative, but the author really assumes the reader has good knowledge in Maths. Some games felt very niche.
Aman Menath –
I was hoping for more practical applications of the math, rather than a historical overview. Still interesting.
