Knut-Michael Wolf is widely recognized in Germany and throughout the world as an expert on games. He is probably best known to gamers for his KMWs Spielpl@tz, which later became part of Spielbox magazine. 

Folks who have been around before the internet became the way of communicating will also be familiar with Die Pöppel-Revue, Wolf's Play-by-Mail magazine.

He has also helped develop over one hundred games, and has even designed a few of his own. Several Spiel des Jahres winners have been directly influenced by his contributions, including Dampfross and Cafe International.
