Got some new prototypes in for Train of Thought and Hench in prep for Unpub. Things are lookin' pretty snazzy! Huge thanks to the folks at @printplaygames.com for the quick turnaround and quality products.
Looking good! 😊

We're back from holiday break and have decided that the first thing on our collective resolution list will be PLAYING MORE BOARD GAMES!!

A Christmas tree made out of wooden meeple!
The P&P shop will be closed from Christmas Eve to New Years, as we spend time with our families for the holiday season.
We wish you and yours a very happy and healthy Christmas, full of board games!

It’s been such a crazy busy year at @printplaygames.com and I am just tired and ready for the holidays 😅. Lots of fun looking board games came through the shop though! Seeing all the awesome new prototype projects is truly a gamers dream 😊.
Brightly colored folding board panels featuring mystical circle goal designs
We worked with @asmadigames.bsky.social a few months back to build some folding board prototypes for their latest dice flinging project, Mystic Curling Club. The Kickstarter campaign still has 11 days left, so go give it a good ole' look-see 😃

Tons of colorful game prototype boxes lined up on our display shelves
It’s been a hot minute since I’ve shared anything from the @printplaygames.com office! We’ve been absolutely slammed out here and it’s super hard to take a breather. Nice to sit down and reflect on some of the cool board game prototypes that have passed through the shop every once and awhile 😊

Here are some naturally calming flashcards we recently printed for Sweetsop Designs! The flashcard possibilities are endless out here 🧘
#flashcards
Great suggestion! Having an automated process to gang up 2 or 3 popular tokens on one sheet could be cool. We'll make note of it 🙂. For now, you'd want to go with our custom tokens and boards option.

Here is a fresh prototype for the card game "Wildflower" (just launched on Kickstarter by Cracked Games), featuring some very delightful domino-sized cards!

Yes, we're still alive!
We've been heckin busy out at the P&P office these last few months, working on everything under the sun. We're talking game review copies, Kickstarter prototypes, wedding gifts, homebrewed expansions, and even some very appropriately themed projects for the holidays 🦃🪓🦃.

(Thanks for sharing, Mike 😊)
