Becca Hunter

I’m Becca - a Fire Horse born in 1966 in England. I grew up mostly in Yorkshire, in the north of England, but also spent time at school in Kenya, where I still have family (as I do back in Yorkshire). In 2010, I moved to Canada with my husband, Stephen, and our sons, Jamie and Oscar.

​

I help edit the murder mysteries, usually after they’ve been written and played once during initial testing. Being present for the playtests is one of my favourite parts of the process - there’s nothing better than seeing the writing come alive. I especially love the discussions at the end, when everyone talks about what worked and what didn’t. That feedback is gold.

​

Alongside editing, I take care of the behind‑the‑scenes work: building and updating the website, figuring out marketing, listing the games on Etsy, creating printed props, and handling social media.

​

I also very genuinely provide tea and snacks.

​

Outside of murder mysteries, I’m a pattern designer. I create colourful patterns for fabric and products like bags and notebooks, which I sell on my website at www.beccahunter.com, if you’re curious.

​

I love games and play regularly. Current favourites include Minecraft, Bananagrams, Wingspan, and Hanabi. I’m also very taken with Probe - a terrible name, but a brilliant game.
