Jon is a strategy game fanatic - his favorite games are open-ended puzzles with strategic, complex systems and creative solutions. He loves that games allow anyone to share in unique experiences, like designing a subway system in Mini Metro: London or building a civilization in Pre-Civilization Bronze Age. He has been helping discover and design games that make you think for Coolmath since 2014.
In his free time, Jon enjoys biking, playing board games, card games, Nintendo, Xbox and PC games. In past lives he has helped design board games and card games, including the Chaotic Trading Card Game and the Twilight movie (yes, that Twilight) board game series.
Jon is a graduate of NYU’s Stern School of Business and is deeply passionate about using games as a way to help people think, learn, and grow. His accomplishments in the web gaming space have given him opportunities to share his insights as a speaker and panelist at industry events such as GDC, Gamescom and Pocket Gamer Connects.

January 1, 1999Can you help the Boombot escape? You'll have to blow up a bunch of bombs in just the right way to do it. A favorite of anyone who likes to make lots of noise.
Gravity Grid
January 1, 1999I love this one! LOTS of thinking and planning ahead involved. You have to tip the game area around to get blocks of the same color together so they'll disappear.

January 1, 1999This puzzle is moving while you try to put it together! I could give you some tips for solving this, but it will be more fun for you to figure it out for yourself.
Bricks Breaking
January 1, 1999I've played this game until I was blurry-eyed. Click on groups of bricks that are the same color to get rid of them. The trick is to plan ahead to delete huge chunks at once.
