My name is Rob Sandberg, and I am the Game Production Alchemist! I started developing video games on my Apple II as a teenager in the 80s and have since been professionally making games and building game services for over thirty years. As a producer, I have shipped dozens of games from concept to live operations on mobile, console, PC, VR and web.

I am credited for award-winning AAA titles, top-grossing apps that have earned billions (yes, billions with a B) in revenue, games with big licensed brands, budget Walmat shovel-ware, some of the lowest-ranking games of all time, and so many cancelled games I have lost count. The good, the bad and the ugly, but every game was a learning experience. I wear my scars with pride. See my LinkedIn bio or Alchemy Society credentials below for more details. Here are many of the games that I had the privilege of being a part of.

I reside in Buckinghamshire, United Kingdom, in the shadow of the Chiltern Hills, writing in my secret laboratory in an undisclosed location. In the latter part of August each year, I can be found at the 10/7 Bar located at the Tokyo Ranger Outpost in Black Rock City, Nevada.
