Time for some old-fashioned Canadian pride.

This is a list for games desgined by good-old Canucks

Feel free to add -- there must be MANY more.

Or comment if I have games here which do not fit

I know there are other games which have a Canadian connection, but often created by Americans or Europeans.

* NOTE as of March 27, that is the list I have access too, anyone with other insights please let me know I can add, or you can add as well.

I hope this is seen as an interesting and worthwhile resource that brings Canadian designers together in one Geeklist

BIG THANKS to Sean Ross for a designer list


GENERAL OBSERVATIONS (a list based on gut feeling):

Most Successful : Trivial Pursuit

Best game : Crokinole based on longevity, and skill needed

Biggest Surprises : A Game of Thrones and Shadowfist CCGs having a Canadian connection

Hottest games : Interest in Wasabi and Genji both appear high

Canadians like abstracts : Omega Chess, Dragon Chess, Proteus, Micropul and Par-K all VERY good abstract games, in fact Omega might be best Western Chess variant there is.

Not a surprise : We like hockey games

I actually talked with the guy who created it and got to trie a few of is next release at a monthly board game night.

Very nice guy, i'm not a fan of party games so I probably won't be buying much...

Funny as basketball the sport was also invented by a Canadian (working in the US).

I would LOVE to see a logo for this that was a parody of the NBA logo.
(What? You mean zombies can fly through the air for dunks?? zombie )

Then again, some guys in the NBA already play like zombies (see Zydrunas Ilgauskas, or Shaq).
