About

Games are microcosms of life. Every game endeavors to simulate an experience, or a piece of reality to which its players can relate. Whether it be a competition to dominate the world or a shared challenge in saving it, or even something as small as caring for one's backyard garden, it creates a feeling and a memory. And when the game ends, the shared memories of those who enjoyed it create a story. 

At Brave Legacy, we believe that this wonderful form of literature - a story crafted mutually by those who set out to experience it - is one which enriches all who partake of it. We want to bravely create games where players come away thinking and talking about what they did, what they were proud of, and what made them feel a sense of accomplishment, charm, or wonder. But even more: we want them to hoist sails, make deals, build power plants, travel between worlds, and even become gods. Because in this beautiful medium, we write the story together.

So how will the world remember your story?

Who we are:

Colin is a high school English teacher who developed a passion for game design early in life. It started as making games for his friends back in middle school, and eventually morphed from an idle hobby into an aspiration. Colin founded Brave Legacy Games in 2013, but life got in the way of his initial projects. Now, he's teaming up with Tom to revive the dream and build Brave Legacy into something real.

Tom is a Presbyterian minister who made an economy game called Widgets as a thought experiment years ago, then set aside the project while he went into seminary. Through his friendship with Colin, he rediscovered an interest in game design, and has developed several exciting game concepts that feel truly unique thanks to his extended hiatus from the games industry. With no preconceived notions of what card games could be to hold him back, he and Colin made Uncantations as their first truly collaborative project.
