The Board Game Family "Made For Play" - Board Game Documentary

?Made for Play? documentary now available on DVD!

Did you know that play takes a lot of work?

Especially when that play is a board game!

As a society we often take a lot for granted. It?s so easy to pull a board game or card game off the shelf, sit down, and have some fun playing with our family. But do we ever really think about how much work goes into making the games for us to play?

Well, the ?Made for Play? documentary will give you a new appreciation for board games.

Our friends at The Spiel published a video documentary that provides an amazing view into the manufacturing process of board games ? ?Made for Play: Board Games & Modern Industry?. And it?s now available on DVD!

We wrote about the documentary last fall when the film was made available online via YouTube and Vimeo, but the DVD is out now and offers much higher quality audio and video, plus subtitles in English, French, Swedish, Spanish, and Polish.

The film is just $20, plus shipping and can be ordered through The Spiel Website. DVDs are shipped to US and international addresses via USPS Priority Mail.

While they were in Germany for the Spiel Essen (the largest board game tradeshow in the world ~ 200,000 attendees), they visited a major board game manufacturing company ? Ludo Fact ? to document the fascinating board game manufacturing process.

Order your copy today.

The Made for Play documentary shows incredible detail of what it takes to make and assemble all the components of board games and card games.

• Game boards
• Cards
• Cardboard Tokens
• Wooden pieces
• Plastic pieces
• Dice
• Rulebooks
• Scorepads
• Insert trays
• Game boxes

It?s a fascinating look into all the work that goes into the 4-6 week process of manufacturing great board games and card games.

We hope the film gives you a greater appreciation of the time, effort and investment that goes into every quality board game that makes it to the marketplace and your home. The business of fun requires a lot of hard work! ? The Spiel
