me
Hi! I’m Ali. I have been designing tabletop board games since 2024 and am an active member of Playtest UK in and around London. I licensed my first two games in 2025. Below you will find current unsigned designs, published games as they are announced, and gallery of works in progress! When not doing game design I am a trainee educational psychologist.

licensed games
I signed my first two game contracts in 2025 – a light abstract strategy game co-designed with Alexander Zacherl and a light social-deduction game. They are scheduled for release in late 2026/early 2027, I will post details of these (and hopefully more soon!) here.
