Matthew Dunstan


Matthew Dunstan is a Australian board game designer currently living in Cambridge, UK, where he works as a research scientist in Materials Chemistry. Playing and designing games tends to distract him often from that goal...

He was introduced to games very early on when an aunt decided to teach him chess on an old cardboard travelling set during a visit to the beach. Later on, he would discover The Settlers of Catan at a friend's house, sparking his interest in more modern boardgames, even if they were somewhat difficult to come by in a small rural town in Australia. His boardgame collection has grown much since then, and has even followed him all the way around the world.
