Your guide in publishing your board game idea
Do you have a nice idea for a board or card game and do you want to do something more with it but you don't know where to start? I am happy to help you develop your game, make the perfect pitch or find the right publisher.
Hello
My name is Joost van Haasteren
In the more than 7 years that I have worked at Jumbo (one of the oldest game publishers in the Netherlands) as brand and product manager of the board games category, I have reviewed hundreds of game ideas, seen many pitches, developed the most potential ideas and launched more than 60 unique games. So I know how to successfully market a good idea and I like to use my experience to advise game designers in the process, whether you already have some experience or not.
How can I help you?
Okay, you came up with a fun game idea and made a prototype with some cardboard, a pen, some pawns or cards. After playing some games and refining the gameplay, it starts to look like something! Maybe you have already tested it with family and friends around you and they are also enthusiastic about it. And now what? How nice would it be if your game is next to the famous games such as Catan, Ticket to Ride, Uno or 30 Seconds in the shops! It’s not that easy, but I can certainly increase your chances by helping you with the steps to take.
From professionally assessing your game idea for technical and commercial feasibility, to making a pitch that shows the fun of the game with a clear explanation and finding the right publisher. Click below for more information and feel free to contact me.
