Matthieu Podevin
, b. 1985
Matthieu Podevin was born in France in a large family of keen gamers with many cousins – children and adults – playing hundreds of various games. He works as a masseur and physiotherapist in Meurthe et Moselle-à-Lupcourt near Nancy and is also a passionate gamer and game designer; he has been creating prototypes of games since he was eight. He also designed card games and board games, such as Abycity, which became the prototype for Titan, Drogi do Rzymu [Roads to Rome], published for the Polish market, and Caesar’s Empire. His latest creation, with Olivier Melison, was Tiles of Arabian Nights. Currently, he is working on a cooperative abstract family game, a potential extension of Caesar’s Empire, and two games set in Antiquity. He also plans to realize a game about Ancient Rome.
