About Ben Brosofsky

Ben Brosofsky is a writer for Screen Rant and covers video games and tabletop. He graduated from Vanderbilt University with a Bachelor's in Cinema & Media Arts. Writing serves as a much-needed distraction from tackling a backlog of Steam games that will never be surmounted.

Industry Focus

Talking about games is interesting, whether that comes in the form of features, reviews, interviews, or anything else. Action-adventure titles and RPGs tend to take up the majority of Ben's video gaming coverage, but nothing is off the table. Indie games are the future.

Favorite Media

Some of Ben's favorite games are The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Portal 2, Super Mario 64, Dishonored, and Tales of Symphonia. Indie picks include A Hat in Time, N++, Hollow Knight, and The Banner Saga, and Super Castlevania IV and Genesis Aladdin are a couple of 16-bit standouts.
