Board Game Consignment Catalog
Designers have games they’re willing to sell for a flat fee, and publishers are looking for games that are both desirable and commercially viable.
This catalog exists at the intersection. Whether you’re a designer with a game to sell or a publisher seeking your next title, we can help.
How does it work?
The process takes 3 steps:
We identify high quality designs and add them to our catalog
Publishers sign a purchase agreement that transfers ownership of the design and all associated assets
The designer and MasterMinds share the proceeds
The board game publishing landscape has changed. Designers are starting to notice, and approaches are shifting.
Our job is to get the right game design in front of the right publisher. This used to be done by taking sell sheets and pitch meetings, but now there are slush piles to manage and calendars are full.
Our catalog is curated before you ever see it. The designs are qualified: checked for manufacturing and financial feasibility, playtested, paired with concept art or even offered with complete print-ready files.
Why does it work?
Why It’s Right For You
You capture a 20% savings on your total investment in the first printing of the game, and future printings are royalty free.
You can choose to receive finalized, print-ready files that shorten your time horizon.
You can choose to change how designer attribution is handled.
Shorten the runway between discovering a new game and bringing it to market - your next big title is waiting in the catalog!
