​👾 Why games?

​We believe the best minds in tech are game thinkers.

​Demis Hassabis crushed at chess before DeepMind. Zuck plays poker. Reid Hoffman reimagined Catan. Great players make great builders.

​Games reveal how someone thinks. It's instinct, math, timing, and emotional control — in public.

​Zuck used to play poker every night with his cofounder Eduardo Saverin in the early days of building Facebook.
