Company Co-Founders & Creators

Donovan Eberling

Donovan made his first game from Castle Legos who fought epic battles on the back of a Twister mat. He's been making up the rules ever since.

After writing 10 feature screenplays and directing as many short films, Donovan returned to his childhood love of making board games.

Tournament of Towers is the latest in a series of design efforts.

He also designed a custom set of Magic the Gathering cards then co-led two more Iron Hippo projects in development: Black Market, an upcoming underworld themed strategy game, and a still underwraps alternate future RPG.

Jeff James

Jeff was born into a house filled with competitive gamers. The family obsession with tabletop and video games quickly cultivated into a desire not just to consume, but also to design games.

As a young lad, Jeff created original games and stories from HeroQuest, Warhammer, Micro Machines & Ninja Turtles. By the time he was old enough to drink, his work portfolio expanded to the Pandemic Studios’ video games Star Wars: Battlefront II & The Saboteur. You may also recognize him from the Star Wars Machinima “A Clone Apart” as Danson-Delta 40.

He is dedicated to creating board games that live up to serious gamers' expectations, and ones that can entertain & challenge people of all ages and backgrounds.
