Sky Team<\/a> and Decrypto publisher Hachette has agreed a deal to distribute Parisian board game company Super Meeple’s games in the US, taking over from Asmodee USA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Asmodee USA had signed an exclusive worldwide English language distribution agreement with Super Meeple in the summer of 2021, bringing the company’s entire library of titles into the Asmodee catalogue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Super Meeple, which was launched in 2014, says it has “embarked on a mission to revitalize gaming classics”, including visual enhancements, rules refinements, and improving the quality of materials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hachette will kick off the partnership by bringing Wolfgang Kramer design Expeditions: Around the World to the US market this year. The game is a reimplementation of Kramer’s 1996 design Expeditions, which is itself heavily based on Kramer and his wife Ursula’s game Wildlife Adventure from 1985.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Super Meeple’s publishing catalogue also includes Michael Kiesling and Wolfgang Kramer’s Spiel des Jahres winner Tikal, the pair’s Java remake Cuzco, and Nicolas De Oliveira design Colors of Paris.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
