The cafe opened after quitting school, which was successful... Engineering college man who became a “board game PD” Mandoo Games CEO : Ki-Chan Kim's founding myth
Aug 11, 2020, 01:25
“The first time I encountered board games was when I was going to school. It was so much fun that I brought a Blue Marble to the rooftop and played games all night. Then I opened a small board game cafe, and the cafe was doing better than I thought. So I did not go back to school and started a board game company called Playoff in 2002. In 2010, I sold the company to Korea Board Games, and I worked there as the head of the development for five years. And then, I moved to a company called Happy Baobab and worked as vice president for two years. And I left the company and started another business. That is Mandoo Games right now.” Ki-Chan Kim, CEO of Mandoo Games talked calmly about his founding history.
Mandoo Games started as a consulting company that helped Asian developers, including Korea, Hong Kong, and Japan. As part of overseas expansion, Kickstarter funding was conducted, and publishing (game publishing) was also carried out. Currently, it is mainly developing its own products and bringing overseas products to the Korean market.
Mandoo Games is a board game publishing and development group consisting of producers, art directors, game editors, and graphic editors. Mandoo Games attaches great importance to showcasing wonderful projects that each member and partner can take pride in. Based on the teamwork and constant efforts to achieve such results, each member of the team is doing its best to grow into a proud expert on the world stage and create fans around the world waiting for the new project of Mandoo Games.
Mandoo Games' major products are distributed around the world through overseas partners such as Broadway Toys, CMON, FoxMind, BlackRock, Portal Games, Foksal, NK, Hasbro, dvGiochi, and 999Games.
The CEO said, “Even if there are people who have never played a board game, no one has played it once.” “If the charm of online games is a graphic that captures the senses, the charm of board games is narrative. There are many people who are amazed by the well-structured story, vivid design, and clever gameplay. Good quality games also impress people.” He showed pride as a board game producer.
