Synopsis

Designed to give the maximum amount of fun for the minimum amount of rule-reading, Tiny Games for Work will let you find the perfect game for whatever situation you're in. All you need is this book, and the stuff that's around you. (Friends optional) Games for sticky notes and coffee grinds, games for dealing with customers and even games for working from home. Whether you're feeling creative or competitive, silly or energetic, we've got you covered. "It's like carrying around a collection of Victorian parlour games - except the Tiny Games take advantage of modern social settings and contexts. They're amusing, raucous and inventive" The Guardian

They create new games and experiences, curate and support the work of artists and designers through the Sandpit series, design and consult with global brands, and speak at events around the world. The Nature Games Weekend is part of Hide&Seek's own series of social games events over the summer supported by Arts Council England.

Paulina Ganucheau is an illustrator, comic book artist and an avid lover of the Magical Girl genre. Born and raised in New Orleans, she has done work for many publishers including Boom!
