Off the Page Games launches Off the Page Games Unbound, launching with The Seekers including a Comic Tie-In

The Seekers

Off the Page Games has announced a new spin-off brand called Off the Page Games Unbound. This brand will be run by the folks at Off the Page Games, so expect the same quality and novel concepts. These games, however, will not be bound by comic book licenses.

Off the Page Games is known industry-wide as a prestige brand that works with indie comic book creators to bring their intellectual property to the tabletop. While the parent brand will maintain this focus, Off the Page Games Unbound will be free to explore and create other worlds. The imprint launches later this year with their inaugural game, The Seekers, designed by Jay Cormier and Sen-Foong Lim.

To help bridge the gap between the two brands, Off the Page Games Unbound has hired Chris Schweizer, an award-nominated comic book creator, and illustrator Rocio Ogñenovich to create a series of comics based on The Seekers. Schweizer is no stranger to Off the Page Games as he’s collaborated with the publisher to turn his graphic novel series, The Creeps, into a family board game coming out this fall. The Seekers webcomic will be released weekly leading up to the crowdfunding campaign for the board game. Physical copies of these stories will also be included with the final product.

The Seekers, designed by the same duo that designed the hit game MIND MGMT, aims to introduce families to the hidden movement genre of games. One player takes on the role of the sneaky Mushroom, who is trying to collect the crystals, while the other players, who are acting as the Seekers, are trying to find and catch the Mushroom.

Off the Page Games Unbound will debut with The Seekers later this year on Kickstarter!

Next up for Off the Page Games is the release of 4 new titles this fall: Grendel, The Creeps, Corps of Discovery: Ultimate 2nd Edition, and Corps of Discovery Duo.

Godfather: A New Don Coming This Summer

The Godfather A New DonControl the streets of New York and bring power to your family in this summer’s The Godfather: A New Don. Designed by Jay Cormier and Sen-Foong Lim, The Godfather: A New Don is a game for 3-6 players that sees each player taking control of one of the major mafia families, each trying to assert their power in the streets of 1950’s New York in hopes of taking the reigns as the new kingpin of the criminal world. The game is playable in approximately 45 minutes.

The Godfather: A New Don is an area control board game with unique dice mechanics. Each round players will roll their individual pools of dice and decide what area of the city they’ll want to focus on trying to capture. Meanwhile, the current Don will be able to make players an offer they can’t refuse and steal dice from their limited supply. Staying on top proves difficult as every stolen die moves other players up the ladder toward taking over as Don, so the tension rises with each shake of the dice. With multiple ways to use each dice you roll, players will never find themselves at the mercy of the die, instead they’ll use what they roll to make their opponents beg for mercy.
