Mark Rein-Hagen Biography

Mark Rein-Hagen is one of the most popular and richest Game Designer who was born on August 30, 1964 in Ohio, United States.

In 1987, Rein-Hagen and Jonathan Tweet founded game publisher Lion Rampant while students at Saint Olaf College; there they met Lisa Stevens who later joined the company. Rein-Hagen and Tweet designed Ars Magica over a period of nine months, publishing it in 1987. Lion Rampant encountered financial difficulties in 1990, but after Stevens pitched the idea of a merger to Rein-Hagen and Stewart Wieck, they decided to merge White Wolf and Lion Rampant forming a new company White Wolf Game Studio, with the two as co-owners. Of his experience at Lion Rampant, Rein-Hagen recalls;

While Rein-Hagen was on the road with Wieck and Stevens to GenCon 23 in 1990, he conceived of the game Vampire: The Masquerade which became his main project for the next year, and was published by the new company in 1991. Next year (1992) Rein-Hagen wrote (with Robert Hatch and Bill Bridges) Werewolf: The Apocalypse which was published through White Wolf. Mage (1993) was based to a certain extent on a game that Rein-Hagen had imagined back in 1989 as something like a modern-day Ars Magica, although this was the first World of Darkness game in which he was not explicitly involved. Wraith (1994) marked his return to the design of the core games in the World of Darkness setting. Rein-Hagen was developing a science-fiction game called Exile to be published in 1997, which was to be owned by a non-profit called the Null Foundation. However, White Wolf encountered financial difficulties in 1995–1996, which caused a falling out between Rein-Hagen and Wieck and his brother Steve Wieck. As a result, Rein-Hagen left White Wolf taking Exile with him. His Null Foundation put out a playtest draft of Exile in 1997, but the game was never fully published.

Mark Rein-Hagen (born 1964) is a role-playing, card, video and board game designer best known as the creator of Vampire: The Masquerade and its associated World of Darkness games. Along with Jonathan Tweet, he is also one of the original two designers of Ars Magica.

He served as a writer and producer for Kindred: The Embraced, a 1996 TV show loosely based on Vampire, produced by Aaron Spelling and shown on Fox TV. He was unhappy with the finished product because FOX’s producers had a vision for the series he did not share. “The show wasn’t as good as it could have been, if they only had listened to me more.” Kindred was cancelled after eight episodes, however, following the death of its star Mark Frankel any attempts to revive it were abandoned. Rein-Hagen continued to work in Hollywood for four years total, but disillusioned and fed up trying to make it as a writer, he decided to leave it behind. “It was the goal of my life, but finally I just left”.

In 2012 Rein-Hagen worked on a card game called Democracy for his company Make Believe Games. This game was successfully funded by Kickstarter in November 2012. As of December 3, 2014, over two years after funding, fulfillment is largely complete. On February 4, 2014 Rein-Hagen released a statement citing poor health as the reason for his lack of communication and promising that backers would get their game. Commentators were extremely unhappy with the tone of the message and complained that Rein-Hagen’s ill health had not affected his ability to work on other crowd-funded projects. The game Democracy shipped on November 18, 2014.
