“Working with LaunchBoom was like night and day. We went from complete darkness, not knowing anything about marketing, to a clear, outlined program that helps you reach the backers you want.”

A Message From Our Director of Games
Why We Love Launching Board Games
Great games don’t just get funded, they build a community of players who can’t wait to get it to the table.
I’ve been a tabletop gamer my whole life, so getting to help creators bring their games into the world is genuinely a dream job.
When I started running games at LaunchBoom, I kept seeing the same story: brilliant designers with incredible games, and no idea how to reach the players who would love them.
So we built a playbook specifically for tabletop. We use your gameplay visuals, renders, and prototype assets to build demand before you launch, so you go live to a real audience instead of hoping the algorithm blesses you on day one.
We’ve helped games raise hundreds of thousands, and cross the million-dollar mark, all by proving players want it first.
If you’ve got a game you believe in, I’d love to help you bring it to the table. Let’s make this a co-op.
