Play to Win Games #G2S2025
One of our more popular events at Granite Game Summit is the Play-To-Win. Play-To-Win is where you can play one of our featured games for a chance to win that copy of it. How cool is it that you can come to a gaming event and have a chance to win just by playing a game?
Nicole Zheng and Matthew Caron
We are excited to be welcoming Nicole Zheng and Matthew Caron to this year’s Designer Alley at #G2S2025!
Christopher Wiley
Growing up in the 70’s we had the standard board games that everyone had. Monopoly, Life, Clue the usual suspects. Sit down, set up, play, “Dad, why do you have 3 $100.000 bills tucked under the couch?!”, win or lose, and pack up.
Nathan Fullerton
I'm a New Hampshire native who loves board games and always wanted to make my own. About a year and a half ago I joined the Game Makers Guild, started attending conventions, and now have my first game under contract, coming out in 2026!
Lisa Reinke
Hello G2Sers! I am Lisa Reinke, a lifelong gamer and a regular attendee of Granite Game Summit from New London, New Hampshire. Over the years, I have created some game components, variants and modules to enjoy with friends, but I have never developed a free standing game.

Emily Vincent
A lifelong gamer, I began designing games in 2022 after returning from PAX East and realizing that the games I wanted to play didn’t seem to exist yet. As a UX Designer/HCI Engineer by day and an artist at heart, I had long wanted to get into game design but just hadn’t found the right time.

We sit down with Danny to talk about Ravensburger’s latest projects, favorite gaming moments, and what makes board games such a special part of our lives. Read on to hear his insights, stories, and maybe even discover your next favorite game!

Corey Jones
Bloom-i-nation is an area control game about bees competing to pollinate flower patches. Players draft their turn order between rounds and spend notes to perform actions and allow their bees to dance.
Bill Huffman
Cattycombs of Rhyorr: Cattycombs of Rhyorr is a light euro with tile placement, resource management, and some asymmetry. It has a mix of strategy and randomness, but what would one expect from a game about mice with backpacks eating cheese and reclaiming trinkets that were stolen by pesky cats?
Isaac Hirschfeld
Arbor Falls: It’s time for a change, so you move out of the bustling city, to the quiet, small town of Arbor Falls. You set out to collect quirky furniture to decorate your empty home. Along the way, you help your neighbors, meet new people, and clean up the town.
Dave Eng
