About Steve Meretzky
- Steven Eric Meretzky (born May 1, 1957) is an American video game developer.
- He is best known for creating Infocom games in the early 1980s, including collaborating with author Douglas Adams on the interactive fiction version of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, one of the first games to be certified "platinum" by the Software Publishers Association.
- Later, he created the Spellcasting trilogy, the flagship adventure series of Legend Entertainment.
- He has been involved in almost every aspect of game development, from design to production to quality assurance and box design. His keen wit, prose and coding skill made him one of the first interactive fiction writers (along with Dave Lebling) admitted to the Science Fiction Writers of America, and in September 1999, PC Gamer magazine named Meretzky as one of their twenty-five "Game Gods"; those who have made an indelible mark on the history of computer gaming.
