Describe GDG Games in one sentence:

Creators of Timeless Board Games – Designing Fun & Sparking Thought

What does “Designing Fun & Sparking Thought” mean?

It means making games that are both enjoyable and mentally engaging. We want our games to challenge your thinking, while still providing the kind of fun that keeps you coming back.

How do you strike the balance between fun and thought?

Every game we create is designed so that fun and smart elements are intertwined. You’ll have those “laugh-out-loud” moments, those “wait, what?” surprises, and that irresistible urge to play again and again.

What makes a game “timeless”?

A timeless game is one that doesn’t feel stale, no matter how many times you play it. It’s the kind of game that keeps offering new challenges and laughs each time you pull it out.

Why is sparking thought important?

We really love designing games that make you think, not just play. Having said that, we love our good light hearted fun games too!

What’s the secret to your game design philosophy?

Our focus is on creating an experience that’s both fun and smart. We believe a game should be more than a one-time experience—it should be a lifelong keeper.

Any media reviews of your games?

GDG Games has enjoyed high praise from top outlets including: Reader’s Digest, The New York Times (Wirecutter), Variety, Oprah Daily, Rolling Stone, Country Living (and many more).

What are some of the headlines?

Featured in: “24 Classic Games Everyone Should Own” (Reader’s Digest), “Best Games for Kids” (Scripps), “Best Trivia Games…” (Oprah Daily), “19 Super Fun Adult Games…” (Country Living) and many more.

Any awards?

Yes! A variety of our games are award winners, including: National Parenting Center Seal, Teacher’s Choice Award, Game of the Year and more!

QUICK! THINK OF A WORD: Can you come up with a ‘Food or Drink’ that includes the letters ‘P’ and ‘A’? You’ve got 60 seconds—can you think of words like ‘peach’, ‘pizza’, or ‘pancake’? The longer your word, the further you move on the board!
