Meet Dunce Cap Games – Part One

Kyle McCurdy – Chief Maitre D’

Kyle is a father of two daughters and a husband to an amazing woman. They have three cats, one dog and three chickens. He lives in Renton, WA and works as a Strategic Account Manager in Seattle (at a really big eCommerce company). He grew up in Saskatoon, SK Canada and studied Philosophy at Washington State University.

This is Kyle's first foray into entrepreneurship. He has spent most of his career in enterprise B2B sales and leadership development and is incredibly excited to launch this company which is so in line with his passion for board and card gaming. 

He plays guitar and drums, enjoys painting miniatures, loves craft beer and whiskey and checking out the awesome music and art festivals in the Pacific Northwest.


The first game he fell in love with was candy-stakes five card poker which he played with his family on camping trips. His favorite game at the moment is Axis & Allies 1940 Global (even though it takes all weekend to play a game) and he loves hosting poker games.

A few other of his favorite games include: Pandemic Legacy, Dead of Winter, Shogun/Samurai Swords/Ikusa, Cards Against Humanity, Unstable Unicorns and Castle Panic.

…as always, play more games!
