Not Another Game Company

Every copy of every game is laser-cut from wood and assembled by hand in California. One person does all of it — design, production, fulfillment. There is no factory and there is no team.

First Print: 100 Copies

That's what one person can build at this quality. Not a marketing number. When they're gone, they're gone.
