Compact Games, our answer to long flights! With our summer holidays coming up, we will all be travelling many hours in airplanes all over the world. Therefore, what to do during these long flights? Especially what will our kids do?
Being very frequent travellers ourselves, we noticed that there are virtually no innovating, ergonomic, inexpensive games to be found, so we decided to invent some ourselves!
To make them practical to play whilst travelling, they all have these characteristic:
- 2 player games
- Ergonomic lightweight boxes
- Only contain cardboard
- Simple to learn/play
- Suited from the age of 6
- Game rules in 11 languages
- Game duration <15 minutes
We made 3 so far and they are called:
- Pon-pon
- 3-2-1
- Parachute.
More information can be found under our games section about each of these games.
So far, we have 2 versions:
- A Pan European version with game rules in 11 languages (Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Norwegian, Russian, Spanish and Swedish.)
- A Russian Federation version with game rules in Russian.
