What’s your name and your position? 

Hey there, my name is Francisco Santos Dacarett. I’m the Creative Director & Lead Game Designer of Andes Studio.

I will be project managing the whole project and leading our wonderful group of people, creating the best game that we can. 

How did you get into gaming? 

One of my first memories in gaming was receiving my Super Nintendo from our aunts that live in the States, that was when I was about 10 years old, and playing Mario Bros for the first time was one of the first experiences I had in gaming, after that it has been a long history of MMOs and RPGs and mostly car games that I got in my passion which is video gaming. 

Tell us 3 interesting facts about yourself

Well first of all, i’m an MD and a Vitreoretinal surgeon. Basically I’m a doctor that plays video games. 

I also love anime One Piece is my favorite anime I still watch it on the daily basis and I have a four year old girl, which I hope she will become a gamer as well. 

What is the most memorable moment in your gaming history?

I wanna say playing Lineage 2 with my brother, that was one of the best times of our gaming life, we didn’t have that much equipment, we would steal our father’s work laptop. I remember this one time that we were playing so hard that we broke the keyboard of my father’s laptop, from work, we did everything we could to attach that key again and all that stress and all that emotion that went into playing a really PVP centered game, but it was one of the best times in gaming that I can remember.
