Shownotes

Chris Backe (rhymes with hockey) is a board game designer, entrepreneur, and athlete. He started making games in 2016, and today has over a dozen games signed or published. He co-founded Virtual Playtesting (a Discord server for online playtesting) in 2020 https://discord.gg/QhtHwvKB9G, and in 2021, he launched the first version of Tabletop Publishers. He started self-publishing games in 2022 with No Box Games (now Shiny Pigeon Printables), and today he lives in Birmingham, England along with his wife. His Kallax is full of games and game components to use in future games, and is active in several board game playtesting communities. When not designing or playtesting board games, you might find him on a running track, at the gym, or possibly doing yoga.
