Most of our games are children’s games and while adults love to buy them as a present and children love to play them, most people won’t sit down and write a review about them. For a family game people do! Really nice to see everybody enjoying the game!

 

A couple of quotes from the reviews:

Keyword can really be recommended for players who love word and brain games.

Many elements that make this a super fun and quick game.

I will definitely play Keyword again.

The game works excellent and looks nice and clear.

I like the challenge to find a word as quick as possible while thinking on the goal to crack the agreed upon keyword.

Nice battle, especially for crossword lovers!

We have just put our signatures on the contract and sent it back. Now the majority of our work has been done, and the illustrator works with the license character on it. Over the last few years we have come to understand the lengthy time-scale of publishing a game, even though we are not fully comfortable with it. Luckily we have many more projects at hand… we will not sit still with fingers crossed until this fall!

This week, we received the artwork from the illustrator. With a few final tweaks, the game is ready for production now. It’s a game for children and families who love word games. As soon as possible the word will be out… but for now, we will bite our tongues.

We proudly present our new release: Face2Face! Simpler than the average memory game, and more fun. It’s as simple as turning over a card with a hole, then one without a hole, and putting them on top of each other. Does a complete animal face appear? You win the set. Is the combination wrong? Have fun looking at the strange animal!
Face2Face is published by White Goblin Games and will soon be available in better games stores and toy chains.
