Do you have a great idea for a creative game or puzzle? We'd love to hear from you!
BIS Publishers creates and publishes beautifully designed games and puzzles that inspire creativity, spark curiosity and bring people together. Our products are sold worldwide through bookstores, concept stores, museum shops and other creative retail outlets.
We are always looking for creative minds, designers and game makers who would like to develop and publish a game or puzzle with us.
What are we looking for?
We believe that a great game or puzzle combines an engaging concept with outstanding design. Our products stand out through their strong visual appeal, making them just as attractive to buy for yourself as they are to give as a gift.
We are particularly interested in games and puzzles that:
Combine accessible, engaging gameplay with an element of knowledge, discovery or learning.
Encourage personal development, creativity or meaningful connections between people.
Offer an original concept with a distinctive and visually appealing design.
Have strong gift potential and appeal to a broad audience.
Above all, we are looking for products that are enjoyable to play, inspiring to explore and beautiful to own.
How do we work together?
As a publisher, BIS works closely with creators to bring their ideas to an international audience.
We expect creators to develop and deliver a complete, print-ready product. Of course, we are happy to contribute our expertise and provide feedback on the concept, naming and visual design, but the creative development and final execution remain the responsibility of the creator.
Once the product is ready, BIS takes care of production, distribution, marketing and sales through our international network.
Creators receive royalties based on the number of products sold.
