Description

The Wandering Ben is where Ben Wander creates his own narrative-driven adventure games and collaborates with other creatives.

History

Early history

The Wandering Ben was founded in 2015 by Ben Wander. Having jumped around the games industry for a while, and working for companies like BioWare and Visceral, Wander was living his dream, but questioned the next move in his career. He realized his favourite recent games were indie titles, and he longed to create his own. He also admitted he hadn't traveled as much as he would have liked. So he took the plunge: he quit his job, traveled Southeast Asia for a year, and began working on The Ben Wander Murder Collection.

A Case of Distrust

The Ben Wander Murder Collection was always a working title, and was eventually renamed A Case of Distrust. It's a story-driven adventure game, following a female private detective in 1924 San Francisco. It combines Ben's fascination for history, his love of mysteries, and his desire to create a type of game not found in the AAA space. Development is still on-going, and more information can be found on the game's website.
