Francis Tresham (game designer)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Francis Tresham is an United Kingdom-based board game designer who has been producing board games since the early 1970s. Tresham founded and ran games company Hartland Trefoil (founded 1971) until its sale to Microprose in 1997. His 1829 game was the first of the 18xx board game series[1] and some of his board games have inspired Sid Meier computer games such as Railroad Tycoon.
He is currently managing director of Tresham Games and is, as of 2005, still producing 18xx-style board games.
