Biography edit · view history

Don Wuenschell is a long-time game industry veteran beginning in 1989. His first two games were Marvel licensed titles for the Commodore 64 (you remember that machine?): The Amazing Spiderman and Captain America in Dr. Doom’s Revenge and X-Men: Madness in Murderworld. Even before this, he used to spend all of his parent’s money at local arcades.

He joined Firaxis in 2002 as a programmer, a spot he still holds in 2006.

Outside of gaming, he likes to sample the plethora of different beers around as well as visiting local bowling establishments. He only has four, 300 games so he’s in no danger of leaving to go on the Professional Bowler’s Tour.

Don has a degree in Computer Science from Computer Systems Institute in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
