About NE1 Games

NE1 Games is a fledgling game company that believes that better choices make better games. We believe not only in trying to make great choices when it comes to our own designs and giving players great choices during gameplay but also in making great choices in who we support and  work with.  

Our current project, a board game with the working title: A Shadow of Perfection, puts the player in place of a Renaissance families attempting to persuade Leonardo, Raphael and Michelangelo to work on their estates producing legendary works of art and guaranteeing their families prestige.  The central mechanic is a twist on worker placement we like to think of as worker persuasion.

Founder: Nate Ellis is a game designer, writer, and artist. He formerly worked as a Designer at Bethesda Game Studios. He has design credits on Skyrim and Fallout 3 and QA credits on several games published by Bethesda Softworks including Brink and Oblivion.
