Special Release - Breaking Boundaries with Leyla Johnson


Listen Later

Leyla Johnson, the CEO of Mohawk Games and a historical strategy games developer, joins Lexie to discuss her path from journalism in Lebanon into gaming, using the Bible to trick her mom into not confiscating her books, potentially using “Old World” to teach history, increasing female representation in the gaming industry and inspiring women to break stereotypes. So tuck in your togas and hop aboard Trireme Transit for this week’s exciting odyssey! Don't forget to follow us on Twitter, Facebook & Instagram or visit our website www.theozymandiasproject.com!


Originally recorded April 6, 2021.


Note: The Ozymandias Project team elected to release this episode during what is normally our off-week to spotlight a powerful woman in response to the recent resurgence of a sexual harasser in the podcasting/entertainment space. This is a content warning regarding sexual harassment. If this subject is triggering in any way, please skip right to the episode itself, beginning at 1:46.


You can follow Leyla on twitter, "@LeylaCatJ" and check out her newly released game "Old World" on the Epic Games Store: https://www.epicgames.com/store/en-US/p/old-world.
