Whenever we produce a game, we have to ensure that sufficient quantities of the materials are available for each game edition.

To play it safe, we always produce slightly more than we actually need. Once the bags have been filled, generally there are leftover game counters that get filled into the bags landing on the shelf at the back of the warehouse. The verdict: they’re unsaleable without the boxes. But why? They’re also fine without!

During one of the breaks because of coronavirus, we compiled a stock inventory and sorted the game materials; we reprinted the missing game rules and, game by game, we filled all the materials into lovely cotton bags. At a special price, you can now purchase six different games in which nothing is missing – except for a box...

Three of the games are still in our programme; two games are the early forerunners of titles that we produced a second time with an updated design, and one is a genuine collector’s item.

During the breaks due to the coronavirus lockdown, at least we had time to tidy up all corners of our warehouse. And some remainder stock came to light from the early days of our publishing house. When our game editions were produced in hundreds of copies, the game boxes were hand-crafted by a manufacturer in East Germany.

The box covers were made from expensive fine-linen paper, beautiful to handle and obviously more resistant to wear and tear than the paper used to cover game boxes today.

It would be a pity to let these old treasures gather dust. Our special offer for you are four games in the ‘retro boxes’. Two of these games (LINJA and KARO) are still current. The other two are genuinely rare collector’s games. The games have no protective foil, and the game rules are only in German. That’s how it was in the beginning...

The price is certainly unbeatable – limited stock availability!

Hopping dice!

A hundred years ago there were popular games with small catapults shooting little caps into a grid with holes. It was a nice skill game for the whole family because even the youngest are just as likely to score points – chance always plays a part.
In our game variant, the little caps have become colourful wooden dice. With the help of wooden see-saws, you can shoot the dice into the ‘target box’. (The felt lining muffles any noise!) Depending on the position inside the grid, the dice hitting the targets score points. Special rules also apply for skilled players; no matter how much chance intervenes, the more you play, the easier it becomes to score hits and the bar can be raised higher. The dice and see-saws can be packed into the solid and lockable wooden box to take away.

Always ready to play!

Black versus white!

A marble contest is settled on a beautiful wooden game board. The object: to connect as many of a player’s marbles as possible. On the start positions at the edge, players then take turns to push their glass marbles into the middle. The clever trick: new marbles push along the ones already in the game field. So, connected groups can be split up again and others newly created. Once in position, marbles can no longer move on their own. Every marble on the start line counts. Timing is crucial in the scramble for the best places.

The rules are quick to learn, but the short matches are complex and full of surprises.
