Board Game Collaborators
Meet the people and companies behind the games: the designers who invent them, the illustrators who bring them to life and the publishers who put them on your table.
Designers
Board game collaborators
The designer invents the game itself: its core idea, its mechanics, its rules and its balance. From the first rough prototype through countless playtests, designers decide how a game feels at the table and what makes it worth playing again.

Illustrators
Board game collaborators
Illustrators and graphic artists give a game its look: the box cover, the board, the cards and the iconography. Their work sets the theme and atmosphere, and makes the information on every component readable at a glance.

Publishers
Board game collaborators
Publishers turn a design into a finished product: they develop and refine the game with its designer, fund and manufacture it, then distribute it to stores - and often localize it for new languages and markets.
