My connection to boardgame market originates from assisting other developers\u2019 games at first. My first game was greenlighted by Kard \u00e9s Korona (or Korona Games). Later, I managed to work with other publishers as well. Currently about 8 games are available for the public, my name had been printed on the boxes of 10 games since 2016.

I was also working on enhancing classical maze games from activity books with extra elements like collectible items and vanquishable enemies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I started taking game development serously around 2014. The most unique feature of my games is that I do the artwork myself. I also gladly illustrate other developers\u2019 games: I created the artwork of AMICS\u2019 card game Village Pillage and survival board game Scavengers of the Wasteland, created as part of the PlayInclusive program. There are currently 8 prototypes in progress in different phases, while my notebooks contain at least this many more, awaiting to take physical form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Artstation:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/cardforgerguild.artstation.com\/\">https:\/\/cardforgerguild.artstation.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Contact:&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:lajtai.szabo.gergely@gmail.com\">lajtai.szabo.gergely@gmail.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Istvan Szauer &#8211; Stefan Sauer Besides my well-paid (starving) job as a teacher, boardgame designing and vlogging is my hobby, so I do it for fun.
