Aleksandra Mironova asked Jonathan L. Howard:

Do you still work in game industry? Do you have ideas about making a Cabal-themed computer game or, may be, board game some time in the future?

Jonathan L. Howard Not currently, although I wouldn't mind doing some content creation work if any developers are reading this (hint, hint). When JOHANNES CABAL THE NECROMANCER was published, the publisher suggested creating a small adventure game to promote it. I said that sounded like fun and gave them a rough costing for art and coding, given that I would design and write it for free. They looked at the figures and suddenly went off the idea.

I have been approached by a well-known board game designer to do a Cabal-based game, but unhappily the film option includes merchandising rights so I wasn't able to go ahead with that. Perhaps as and when the novels are filmed, they production company might consider issuing a board game license. I hope so; I'm very fond of board games.
