Damiano Gerli’s Biography

Read Full Bio →

I research gaming history, with a particular focus on European software houses and studios, especially lesser known stories that might be interesting to rediscover. But history is not my only love, as I've been gaming all my life with no plans to stop, so I like to disassemble design ideas and look at them through various lenses and via different perspectives, while also talking with developers, journalists and producers.

What was your first job as a journalist?

Covering Sony and Nintendo's PRs in the mid 00s

Have you ever used a typewriter?

Yes, as a kid.

What story are you most proud of writing or working on?

Simulmondo. The first big Italian history of a software house, it took me six months to finish it and more than once I was ready to give up.
