Eric M. Lang is a Canadian game designer. He began his career as a playtester for FASA before publishing his first game, Mystick independently in 2000. He has since worked with publishers Fantasy Flight Games, WizKids and CMON, among others.[1] He is the recipient of the 2016 Diana Jones Award.[2] In March 2017, Lang became CMON's director of game design.[3] Lang left his position with CMON in September 2020 to focus on freelance work and activism in the board game industry.[4]
Controversy[edit]
In July 2020, Lang was temporarily suspended from Twitter after expressing support for Black Lives Matter.[5][6] Lang attributed the ban to a targeted harassment campaign, and his account was later reinstated.
