After designing this game for Metagaming Concepts, Steve Jackson would later go on to form his own gaming company.
Winchell Chung was the artist for the first edition and created the iconic look of the OGRE. These days he's now known for his influential website Atomic Rockets.
OGRE Designer Edition combines both OGRE and G.E.V. games. Weighing at 25 pounds, the box includes large full color counters, tiles and maps and three-dimensional cardboard figures for the Ogres. Contrast this with the first and re-released editions, which could fit in one's pocket.
The Kickstarter Edition of the Designer Edition was given to those who helped in the campaign. It included extras like 3-D Counters and a copy of the Pocket Edition.
