NerdBurger Games is the game design imprint of award-winning RPG designer Craig Campbell. Craig has done a whole bunch of RPG design freelancing in the past. Several years ago, he dove into designing his own RPG. Now NerdBurger Games has multiple RPGs and is showing no signs of stopping.

NerdBurger Games endeavors to create games that explore corners of the RPG landscape that haven't been explored...or haven't been explored very often. These games forgo dense gaming mechanics in favor of lighter rule sets that allow players to focus on telling fun, engaging, memorable stories.

NerdBurger Games was founded in 2015 by Craig Campbell.

Craig Campbell - Lead Designer
I’ve been playing, GMing, and designing RPGs for three decades.

In 2001, I wrote my first paid freelance RPG piece, a convention module for D&D's Living Greyhawk titled, “Winter Tears.” Over the next several years, I published a feature article in Dragon Magazine and wrote a few adventures for the RPGA. In 2009, I began doing more freelancing, racking up over thirty freelance credits for Dungeons & Dragons, Gamma World, Pathfinder, and Iron Kingdoms.

A few years back, I ramped down my freelancing to start work on my own game, Murders & Acquisitions. I have since published M&A, the award-winning CAPERS RPG (along with multiple supplements), Die Laughing, and 4 Little Games.

What Else is Craig Up To?
When I’m not designing RPGs (or playtesting or planning or streaming or…you get the picture), I’m working as an architect, watching all manner of fantasy, sci-fi, and horror TV and movies, reading satirical non-fiction, playing RPGs and board/card games with my friends, and co-hosting a weekly podcast.
