It’s a winning strategy with Forbidden Games!
In 2022 University Games acquired Forbidden Games and entered the exploding strategy games category. Forbidden Games brings a bevy of award-winning games including Raccoon Tycoon and Mosaic: A Story of Civilization.
The portfolio includes elegant tabletop strategy games with a vintage approach to art. Game play has just the right amount of “next step” complexity to engage both casual players and committed gamers. Raccoon Tycoon is considered by Dice Tower to be one of the top 100 board games of all time and Mosaic is following a similar path, joining numerous prestigious Top 10 lists.

We’re dead serious about our Murder Mystery Party games & puzzles.
