Cédrick Chaboussit Has Passed Away French designer Cédrick Chaboussit passed away on February 9, 2025 at the age of 52. In a memorial notice, his family requests that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to cancer research. Chaboussit's game design career launched in 2013 with **_Lewis & Clark: The Expedition_** from publisher Ludonaute, with the designer appearing as a character within the game in a 2014 promo card. _Lewis & Clark_ has remained his best-known game, with the spin-off title **_Discoveries: The Journals of Lewis & Clark_** appearing in 2015 from Ludonaute. Other designs from Chaboussit include **_Tea for 2_**, **_Glow_**, **_Shamans_**, and **_Lost Explorers_**. I had the good fortune to interview him in 2019 at the FIJ game fair in Cannes when he presented "Dice Quest", which went on to become the very different looking _Glow_ two years later. https://www.wericmartin.com/cedrick-chaboussit-has-passed-away/
