The White Box is a game design workshop…in a box! Game ideas may come naturally, but designing, testing, and revising is work. Make it easier with The White Box.
Both new and experienced designers will find something useful in The White Box Essays: 25 essays on a variety of game topics from design essentials to the publishing process.
Use the included generic components to prototype and test your ideas. The White Box eliminates the need to buy new dice or meeples…or crib them from games in your collection and forget to put them back later. (But maybe that’s just us.)
Learn how to create a solid game concept, how to use randomness, what to ask playtesters, and what to do at conventions to give your game the best chance of success. Get the game in your head onto the table with The White Box.
Stefan Lopuszanski created an extension for Tabletop Simulator that provides virtual versions of all of the components that come in The White Box.

OK starter for game design
The box is well made and includes many tokens, dice, cubes, meepels and other material. However, the meeples and cubes are smaller than regular size for board games, and the big cubes are way too big. So they are only partially useful and you’ll likely need to purchase more extra parts to have a standard set of boardgame pieces. But still, it’s better than other starter packs, which have even less usefull stuff inside. So I would recomend it if you can get the box at a reasonable price. But check the box content on the internet before you buy.

Excellent for any one interested in game design.
The white box is an extraordinary tool for those interested in game design. Depending on your prototyping needs you may need a free more things for your game, a couple things I’m looking at are dry erase playing cards, and a dry erase game board. But you can easily make those kinds of things with stuff from around the house like index cards and poster paper.The book of Essays has been fantastic and very informative. I’d say the majority of it is focused on post development, like marketing your game, getting it made and sold etc. All very helpful, but less of a focus on the actual game design part in my opinion.
