About

What is this website?

The My Kind of Meeple (MKoM) website was created by a team of board gaming lovers with a goal to create helpful content for the gaming and trading card community. MKoM writers and editors created game guides to share knowledge about board games, and also to build their own game skills. In 2023, My Kind of Meeple joined TreasureHunter.media to grow the website, its audience, and utilize a multimedia approach to cover a wider breadth of games –while maintaining content quality and authenticity.

What is the MKoM mission?

The MKoM team is on mission to provide helpful board gaming and trading card guides. Furthermore, the team hopes to grow the content to cover board game news, and to interview prominent members of the community. Overall, this website serves as an information hub for all tabletop gamers to refer to when playing board games.

Who is the MKoM team?

Since 2008, the editorial Meeple team has loved playing tabletop games. It all started with Dungeons & Dragons, which then led to Munchkin, then to Small World, and then hundreds more tabletop games! MyKindOfMeeple.com was founded by Emily Sargeantson to create a space to nerd-out on games. To her, it was obvious that the board gaming community was full of passionate, interesting, and welcoming people. Today, the MKoM audience has grown considerably–from gaming veterans to newcomers. As a result, the team proudly focuses on making content that will be helpful to all members of this fascinating gaming world. The MKoM team simply aims to spread the joy of gaming.

Why My Kind of Meeple?

I founded mykindofmeeple.com in January 2019 to create content about my hobby – tabletop games! I love discovering new games, figuring out the best strategies, and introducing new gamers to how amazing tabletop games can be. MKoM gave me a platform to write about games, connect with the tabletop gaming community and even talk about board games on BBC radio! Like my favourite player character from D&D, as my first website, My Kind of Meeple will always hold a unique place in my heart.
