Hero Time Launched Free Sample Program to Support Small Game Publishers

Hong Kong – May 24, 2022 /MarketersMEDIA/ —

Hero Time, the first western-owned board game manufacturer in China, announced today a “Free Sample Program”, providing board game and card game publishers free samples for their games between the months of July and September. This program enables first-time and small game publishers to get samples free of charge while also having a private consultant assisting them in the whole game setup process. This makes Hero Time the first manufacturer to fully support small board games and card game publishers in the market.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, booming demand for tabletop games attracted more investment for creating games, which also increases production demand. According to Technavio Research, the board game market reached 7.14% Y-O-Y growth in 2021 and is expected to increase by USD$2.56 billion from 2020 to 2025.

Mass-market board games like Splendor are published by large vendors like Asmodee, however, most board games and card games are actually made by small creators who are looking at 1,000-3,000 sets for their first print run. At present, the average cost of samples can reach around 600 USD per game, which can be a very daunting amount for first-time and small publishers, preventing them from moving forward with their game creation even if they may raise funds on Kickstarter.

“First-time and small publishers became the pillar of innovation in the board game industry, as such it is our duty as a manufacturer to offer the best solutions to support them in their process. “said Hersh Glueck, founder, and CEO of Hero Time, “As the board game and card game industry sees an influx of first-time creators, small publishers, and indie game creators, Hero Time is looking to make the process smoother, faster, and more affordable for creators. “

Using Hero Time’s standard sizes and automation system, creators can simply submit their files in their correct dimension and get a free sample produced. Hero Time plans to use the months of July through September to make all samples of games that are scheduled to be mass-produced between Q4 of 2022, and Q2 of 2023. 

The steps to participate in this program are simple: 

1. Game creators and publishers should use the standard size of components listed on the site.
