About
Jonathan Lai is a former game designer and product leader from Riot Games, Tencent, and Dots who brings unusually deep, hands-on experience building and scaling hit games globally, including in China's complex games market. He systematically applies game design concepts like "time to fun" and retention loops to evaluate not only games but also consumer, enterprise, and fintech products, treating them all as interactive systems that must feel fun and socially engaging rather than just utilitarian.
