The authors:
Wolfgang Dirscherl was born 1974
in Regensburg (Germany). Once his
playful school days were over he com-
pleted training as a banker before studying
business economics. Since 2004 he has
worked in his dream job as games' editor
for HABA. Apart from this game, he already
has designed many other games for HABA,
for example The Garlic Vampires, Wild
Vikings, Fiery Dragons as well as the educational games
Pirates' ABC and Geometry Pirates. Wolfgang Dirscherl lives
with his wife Sybille and with his son Simon in Coburg.
Markus Nikisch was born in 1973 in
Ludwigsburg (Germany) as the fifth of
six children. Among his five sisters he
would always find one that was willing
to play with him.
He never lost pleasure in playing games.
For that reason, once he had finished
his social education and theology studies,
he decided to move to Bavaria and start
working with the HABA editorial staff for games. He lives
there with his wife Katja and son Joel and has invented more
than 50 games up to date.
Both authors, as a team, have already invented various
HABA games, for example A World of Adventures and
Pirate Arithmetics.
