Our story
From a passion for board games to bringing ideas to life
Every great game begins with an idea. Behind every memorable game is a team that believes in bringing that idea to life.
For Ivan, our founder, that journey began at university, when he first discovered board games. A personal passion grew into a deeper curiosity about how games are designed, produced and brought into the hands of players around the world.
In 2014 Ivan turned his passion into a profession. He joined the board game industry and learned the whole manufacturing process, from materials and printing to finishing, packaging and quality control. Years of hands-on work taught him the craftsmanship, attention to detail and teamwork it takes to turn a creative concept into a finished game.
Along the way he worked with hundreds of clients and saw the challenges that designers, independent creators and publishers face. Great manufacturing is about more than producing cards, boards and boxes. It is about understanding each creator's vision and bringing it to life with care, precision and reliability.
In 2018 Ivan founded Nice Funny Games with a clear mission: to support game creators and publishers around the world by making manufacturing more accessible, collaborative and dependable.
Today, whether you are an independent designer bringing your first game to life or an established publisher developing your next big release, we are here to help you take the next step.
Your ideas. Our craftsmanship.
Turning ideas into winning games and bringing more joy to the world. That's the spirit of Nice Funny Games.

“Fantastic experience and my first card game was wildly successful!”
The Nice Funny Games team was incredibly friendly yet professional and quick to respond. Every time I had a concern or request, it was handled swiftly and effectively. Both the players and I are very pleased with how the games turned out. I'm already working with Nice Funny Games on my next project.

We had to switch manufacturers at the last minute. Nice Funny Games made the switch very easy. They are very communicative and the game would not be what it is without their expertise.

Seva Vora
PWRPLAY Creations
As a young startup we sought a company that could manufacture a small minimum order. The team went above and beyond. They provided constant updates, shared photos of the process, and solved material shortages. I am thrilled with the result.
