520 8  When it comes to video game design, the importance of 
       setting and ambience cannot be overstated. Exploration is 
       fundamental to the medium, and it is vital that virtual 
       locations be as compelling, dynamic, and visually engaging
       as possible. Every location must reflect the themes of the
       game and help create the tone of the story and gameplay, 
       while also subtly directing and reacting to the player?s 
       actions. In 'Next Level: Game Design', some of the best 
       concept artists in the industry showcase fantastical 
       locations designed for video games across genres. Many of 
       the featured artists have worked on critically acclaimed 
       games, while others present tantalizing visions of game 
       worlds yet to be realized. All provide readers with 
       inspiration for approaching their own interactive worlds, 
       and serve as reminders that gaming is a medium whose 
       potential we have only just begun to explore
