Boardgame adaptation
More and more games for worldwide fans
Markets for board games in Europe and Japan are very different. A large success on the Old continent, will surely be a failure in Japan without a specific edition and adaptation. A similar comment from Japan to Europe.
We propose to adapt success-proven games to other regions. This adaptation service includes translation, change in design/graphics and evolution of the game material.
Please contact us if you have adaptation projects.

Game Library
One place to gather them all and through board games bind them
In Japan, the concept of a family game room similar to what we are used to in Europe doesn’t exist. There are places for people to go and play, of course, but are very specific and limited in space, like game bars.
Though, there is a clear need for more friendly and family-oriented places to meet-up with others, discover and play games, rent or maybe buy games as well.
Our game room will make that link between our game lab, our game design office, our partners and most importantly our players.
