Hard to believe that it is 40 years since Steve Jackson and I opened our first Games Workshop retail shop in April 1978 in a little side street in West London. The queue outside was inspiring!

Steve Jackson, John Peake and I founded Games Workshop in January 1975. It was 50 years ago TODAY when we received our first order for six Mancala boards, which were hand-made by John. It was the start of a life-long career in games which I still love and will never retire from.

It's good to see the world increasingly acknowledge the power of play and that games are good for you! Problem solving, intuitive learning, strategy, logic, creativity, communication skills, risk-taking, planning, resource management, critical thinking.
