As long as I can remember, games have always played a special role in my life. Throughout my childhood and youth, I have always played a wide array of games. For that I would like to thank my parents, who have introduced me to this hobby. It didn’t take long for my vivid imagination to come up with own game ideas. In the beginning they were just ideas, but thanks to a project at school around the topic of game design, I started on my way towards developing my ideas into real games. For the first time I tried my hand at creating prototypes and testing them out.
Now I have my own publishing company called OWL Games, to realise and publish my own game ideas. The gaming industry as well as miniature wargaming and TCGs are a big inspiration to me. I’m hoping to help create a community with tournaments and professional gamers for board games as well. That’s one of my goals with OWL Games, as a game designer and publisher: to actively shape the process of building a community, organising tournaments and other events.
Gaming, be it board or card games, TCGs, miniature wargaming or whatever it means to you, is a wonderful hobby and OWL Games has made it its mission to make it even better. I’m grateful for everyone who shares our vision and wants to support us on our journey.
