Bradley R. Wardell (born June 24, 1971) is an American businessman, programmer, author and AI Engineer. He is the founder, President, and CEO of Stardock, a software development and computer games company.
Wardell's specialty is the design and programming of artificial intelligence and game mechanics for turn-based strategy games.
Wardell built PCs and worked as a check proofer while studying at Western Michigan University. He graduated in 1994 with a degree in Electronic Engineering, specializing in Computer Engineering.
Wardell was involved in the design and implementation of Galactic Civilizations for OS/2, one of the platform's few games. He led development of OS/2 Essentials, followed by Object Desktop, a package of utilities and desktop enhancements. Wardell was an advocate of OS/2, and in 1996 won OS/2 Professional's "Corporate Commitment" award.
