Designer Spotlight: Mark

Our next designer for tomorrow’s Brookline Prototype Event is Mark!

Mark Corsey lives and works in Nashua, New Hampshire. When he is not developing his own games he spends a fair amount of time playing other people’s—some of which, he grudgingly admits, are pretty good.

Mark’s “Game of 49” combines classic connect-the-dots abstract strategy—claim four board spaces in a row—with the all-American game changer: money. Rather than capture spaces, players buy them on the open market. And the price of victory is whatever your neighbor is willing to pay—plus a dollar.
