Designed by members of The Game Crafter’s vibrant community. This anthology contains 25 games where the goal is not to just play the games but have fun coloring them as well. Each game takes up only two pages, which lay flat for easy play. Attached is the free PDF. Note that the cover page seems to be incorrectly labelled. The printed book can be purchased at The Game Crafter: https://www.thegamecrafter.com/games/tgc-community-anthology-coloring-book PS: I frequently use The Game Crafter to manufacture prototypes of my board games and card games. I can order 1 or 2 games and all related parts to test out.

Even the ones designed purely for entertainment. Whether we’re flinging angry birds, trading with aliens, or leading a guild into battle, our brains are learning. We’re learning the rules of the game, how to interact with it, the choices we can make, the consequences of those choices, and much more. So the real question isn’t whether a game teaches — we know it does — the question is what does it teach and how useful is that learning in real life. That’s why games and simulations designed specifically for education can be so powerful. When designed well, they facilitate thinking and skill building that is directly transferable to real-world success. This is not gamification — this is experiential game-based learning.
