  • Work

    It’s all about telling great stories and intense experiences

    From the earliest days, we’ve wanted to tell amazing stories. Our goal is to create the most immersive games.

    With a track record that includes a large number of global blockbusters like: Dobble/Spot it! Catan, Star Wars: X-Wing, Ticket to Ride, Jungle Speed, Arkham Horror, Pandemic, and Timeline. As well as, having many titles to choose from, the gaming experience should appeal to the widest possible audience.

    For that reason, we keep bringing each game to its maximum potential, in order to tell the best stories to the greatest number of people.

  • Office Dog

    Office Dog was started in 2022. It was quickly staffed with a small elite team of industry veterans – each with more than 20 years of professional experience in their field. All of us at Office Dog share a desire to bring world-class tabletop games to customers around the world. Instead of designing and illustrating games ourselves, we engage and direct the freelance community of game designers and artists to make our games.

    We focus on original tabletop games as well as tabletop games based on Embrader-owned and licensed intellectual properties. If you’ve ever wanted to pitch your game design to Asmodee, we’re a great place to start. If you’re an artist who wants to work on tabletop games, send us your portfolio – who knows, maybe someday we’ll work together to make a great game.

    Office Dog will start releasing games to the public starting in 2024 with our launch title, Word Traveler followed shortly by River of Gold.
