| Don and his "Game Closet" |
| SAN DIEGO. As a young boy growing up in California, Don loved to play board games with his family and friends, especially because it always
seemed to bring so much happiness into everyone's heart. Those
special times got Don interested in creating some games of his own. He studied the various strategies used in lots of games and used that
knowledge to design and invent games, such as, Moon Probe, Making
Millions, Earth vs. Mars, and his most popular game, Build-A-House.
ST. LOUIS. As a young man living in Missouri, Don was able to bring his love for board games into his practice as a group therapist. While working on a psychiatric unit in a university hospital setting, he found that board games not only soothed patients, but they were instrumental in improving decision-making, problem-solving and goal-setting skills. This led to Don hosting a weekly event called, Board Game Night, which became very popular with hospital staff, patients and their families. UNITED STATES. After enjoying many years of playing old board games with family, friends, and patients, Don decided he wanted folks across the nation to have an opportunity to enjoy them as well. He planned to acquire games from anywhere he could to build up an inventory to sell in his later years. He focused on finding complete games in excellent condition and making complete games from original parts. For many years he collected games from yard sales, garage sales, flea markets, estate sales, rummage sales and thrift shops. As his inventory grew to become 1000s of games, Don knew that it was time to create a user-friendly website for all of you to enjoy. This web site is the result of his efforts. Feel free to navigate his website by clicking on the underlined links at the top of each page. Comments and suggestions are always appreciated. eNEWSLETTER. Don is developing a quarterly newsletter that includes various articles about board games, a feature game story, and game discounts to be used at Don's Game Closet. If you have an interesting article or game story to contribute to our newsletter, please send your article or story to don@donsgamecloset.com. One game story will be selected as the feature story per issue. Thank you. |
