One day I came across a website that had a self-published board game (a teeny tiny game); I have a background in art and thought ‘Now that’s an idea’. The site also had a link to other ‘PNP’ games and the first one I came across was ZIMP. After printing and playing it I was hooked to boardgames. I became a boardgame geek with aspirations of one day designing my own. But, it all started with that one game; if the game had not been a good one I wouldn’t be here and 1.5yrs later I wouldn’t have shelves of designer games. So, I thank you for designing and providing the game for free. ZIMP will always be a special one for meblush; my wife, on the other-hand, would probably have some very different words for you!

Same here. ZimP is what really convinced me to take the plunge and try my hand at game designing. Mr Lee will always have a special place in my undead heart.

I'm honored! Seriously. Wow, so glad to hear such a great story of gaming, and to play a part.

I'll look forward to seeing your game, someday soon.

And do check out Emmanuel's games. There is some great fun to be had there.
