Fortnite was his day job, but this miniatures game was his passion - and it could change everything
Briefly

Daniel Block, a veteran in the gaming industry, is launching Best Hobby to revive plastic miniatures production. After a successful career involving games like Fortnite and League of Legends, he is now focused on capturing the essence of crafting miniatures. With his upcoming game, Zeo Genesis, set to launch on April 29, Block is partnering with seasoned game designers Andy Chambers and Gav Thorpe to create a miniatures skirmish game, tapping into the surge in popularity of this genre in tabletop gaming.
Miniatures are a cruel mistress and they will break your heart if you're not careful. But [the desire to make a game like this has] always been there, for 25 years now.
If I ever reach the point that I get to choose what I do and go out on a limb, go out on a plank, take the risk, make the leap, I'm going to make the miniatures game.
Zeo Genesis is a miniatures skirmish game, a style of game that's exploding in popularity right now both online and at retail.
Block has, well... been around the block a few times. At 51, he's already had an incredible career in tabletop gaming, first in the 1990s.
