Steve Jackson | SJ Games Design Legend

In Conversation with Jordan Sorcery

Steve Jackson and his company Steve Jackson Games have been at the heart of the tabletop industry since its earliest days. At Metagaming Concepts Jackson pioneered the micro-game, an efficient multiplayer gaming experience like OGRE that fit in a small polythene bag.

After founding his own company Jackson went on to develop classics like Car Wars, Illuminati, and GURPS - the Generic Universal Roleplaying System that could be used to simulate RPG games in any setting or style. With games like Munchkin SJ Games has remained a relevant force in the gaming market place to this day.

Steve Jackson even cross the Atlantic to work with Steve Jackson (and Ian Livingstone) to pen a few Fighting Fantasy game books.

We talk about a prestigious career in the table top industry, how he got started, some of his finest works, and where things go next.
