About
Soren Marius
who also makes games as Roman Serius
My name is Soren Marius. I make small games, and I write about the games, movies, shows, books and ideas I can't stop thinking about.
Roman Serius is the name I make games under because anagrams are fun and I haven't found a better one. If you see Roman Serius on itch.io or a daily puzzle here, that's me too.
I studied computer engineering, with a minor in game development, and I mostly use that to build odd little things: solo journaling RPGs, tools for game masters, and a couple of daily word puzzles.
