Hi folks! It's Cole 👋 My wife has been busy crafting her first board game and it's just launched on Kickstarter 🚀 It's an escape room style, sci-fi adventure. I also had the pleasure of co-designing some of the puzzles, which was really fun. Check it out over at: www.kickstarter.com/projects/min...

Happy Anniversary Concrete Jungle 🏙️!
10 whole years ago we released our a new take on the city building genre that swapped micro-management for a more strategic and puzzle-orientated style of city planning.
Concrete Jungle, you'll always hold a special place for us 🧡
