The hawk & dove mission

At Hawk and Dove, we believe that history is not a collection of facts and statistics — it is the process through which we better understand our world by investigating the human experience. We also believe the same thing happens through play. Our mission is to create tabletop games that explore complex topics, hold players accountable to their actions, and open people to new perspectives about the world.

who we are

In 2026, Brooks and Catie Barber founded Hawk and Dove as a place for historical game designs to come to life. The studio holds firm to its design ideals — our games should have models rooted in strong historical research, player agency, and compelling arguments.
