About Gamewright
Gamewright was founded in 1994 by four parents whose kids wanted great games. From the start, our mission has remained clear: Create the highest quality family games with outstanding play-value. Guided by themes and experiences that transcend age and salted with a bit of irreverence, our games are designed to foster laughter, learning, friendship, and fun.
Over the years our family has grown to over 200 games, including such household hits as Slamwich, Rat-a-Tat Cat, Sleeping Queens, Sushi Go!, Qwixx, and Forbidden Island. The thousands of letters we receive from kids, parents, grandparents, and teachers tell us our hearts are in the right place.
