Have I ever shown this game board design to you…? It was made for Ed&Wolf but the rules changed and I had to put it aside. Unfortunately, the illustrations won't fit in the newest game either (yes! I started to design a new one – again) but the shape is so cool, it can’t be wasted… Hopefully, it will survive the design process this time. :-D (The last picture shows the rough version of the new game's board.)

I am a bit late with this post but it took me some time to catch up with messages and social media things. Soooo, thanks to everybody who shared their experience with us, it was really touching to see how you enjoyed the games during the holiday season and even after! I saw lovely pics and short videos of Güs, Rainy Days, Ed&Wolf, and for my biggest surprise, Kingdom cropped up several times. I was happy to answer your questions too and it seems Kingdom's rules needed only detailed explanations. I found this game too dark to start the year with but it seems, I have no other chance. :-) • You won’t be out of the game if you lose all your victory points at the beginning of the game. I share my daughter’s trick with you: she uses this “advantage” and dares to fight with more challenging monsters because she can not lose more victory points if she has none. • When the Merchant Cards do not crop up during the game (weird but it happens) and you can not get all the Memory Tiles fro

Everything outside loses colour, so it’s time to gather ever-greens, decorate the house and celebrate colours. I thought the ‘ Rainy Day ’ game would be colourful enough to cheer us up, so I put the cats into the spotlight. It was fun to work with the happy playing pieces, I hope you will love the game too!

  The ilustration is completed but I am afraid I need more time to fix the rules. It is going to be a cool game with lots of interaction between the players. I hope you will enjoy! Age: 10+, Number of players: 3-4, Duration: 30-45 min

A personal post is coming…: our daughter is turning 18 this weekend. Some of you who follow us from the beginning may know that she was my muse and the reason we started to design and publish games 12 years ago. As a graphic designer mom, I wanted to show her how she can use her drawings to create her own games… and I went too far.  We drew and played together. She witnessed my first attempts with ready-made boxes and pawns, painting them one by one at night beside my “normal” work. From the very beginning, she gave me inspiration and enthusiasm to go on. We tested the games together and being an artist herself she was the only person who understood my struggles. She is my ‘masterpiece’, my only creation which is perfect and I am extremely proud of. Happy birthday my treasure! :-)
