Good games are built from the ground up. At Ludology Lab we strive to create games rooted in scholarly research, theory, and critical analysis. Therefore, every game or gaming experience we create is intentionally designed, even if those deeper concepts are never consciously perceived by the players.

We want to craft positive experiences that allow people to connect with their friends and communities, exercise their strategic and imaginative minds, and of course, have a fun time! While we tend to focus on in-person and table top games, we do also have opinions and thoughts about games of all types (which you will find in our posts here), as we truly believe that games unite people.

We also want to provide an amateur-friendly outlet for new game designers so they can publish their ideas as well. We want to support other hobbyists in making their dreams realities. It’s a lofty goal, but if we all want to benefit from the gaming renaissance, more voices need to be heard.
