Career
He was originally made famous as the creator of Warlords game series in 1989, but in recent years has found fame once again as creator of the Puzzle Quest series. In 2003, after a long alliance with SSG, he split off to form his own game developer company Infinite Interactive.
In 2007, Infinite Interactive put Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords on the market for the DS and PSP. It was a sleeper hit that got a lot of praise by gamers and game developers alike. Infinite Interactive has since brought Puzzle Quest to the Wii, Windows, Xbox 360, PS2, Mac, Mobile, and iPhone.
In 2008, a Puzzle Quest like game was developed on a number of platforms for D3 Publisher of Europe Ltd.. Puzzle Quest: Galactrix is scheduled for release in February 2009. This game builds on the original principles that made Puzzle Quest a hit, with an improved story and more content. Infinite also released another 2 games in 2009, Puzzle Kingdoms and Neopets Puzzle Adventure.
