Kia ora koutou~~! Hi everyone~~! We’re very excited to have Agatha Cheng and Jacob Wood as guests at this year’s Gauntlet Con!

Agatha Cheng is a Canadian podcaster with a deep love for story games and Chinese dramas. She co-hosts Asians Represent!, a show celebrating Asian creators and investigating Asian tropes within the analogue gaming community. In her free time, she likes to sink money into glossy Kickstarter projects and listen to audiobooks.

From Jacob: “My name is Jacob Wood, a blind gamer and the person behind Accessible Games. My belief is that games are for absolutely everyone. They connect people to one another in meaningful ways by building lasting friendships and strengthening family bonds. They improve cognition, motor skills, and social skills. Most importantly, games have the potential to change lives–and I have first-hand experience with that. Not every game is designed for every person, but I believe every person should have the opportunity to find a game for them.”

During Gauntlet Con, Jacob will be running Survival of the Able, and Psi-punk: Born of Two Worlds.
