Australians know how to play the game


Thursday, 8 October 2009


Sydney-based game design company – 93 Made Games – has recently released its first card

game, Viewpoint, to shake-up the reign of foreign games in Australia.  Viewpoint was designed to

provide Australians with a new, highly-interactive and replayable card game amid a multitude of

American-designed games.


“It’s all about designing something from an Australian perspective – with our unique culture and our

jovial nature in mind,” according to 93 Made Games’ Sean Carroll.


Viewpoint provides perfect entertainment for Australian families on a tight budget.  It’s a game to

be enjoyed by the whole family – both parents and children.


93 Made Games’ main challenge in releasing Viewpoint has been getting Australian retailers to

stock a product that was not produced by one of the larger US game publishers, such as Hasbro or

Mattel.  But by releasing Viewpoint at Australia’s premiere games and entertainment expo, Gen

Con Australia, they have garnered great support from Australian retailers, including Good Games

and Games World, which now stock Viewpoint.


“However, we’re totally confident the overseas audiences will also enjoy something that is

designed from a unique and fun Australian perspective, so we are intending to distribute

Viewpoint throughout the US, Europe and Japan,” according to Carroll.


And there’s more in the pipeline with 93 Made Games intending to release more games in 2010

including a Rugby League card game.  To assist other up-and-coming Australian game designers

93 Made Games has also provided a forum for game designers to pitch their ideas.


“Australians have always been known for their ingenuity and inventiveness and these are exactly

the skills that we’re after,” said Carroll.


Viewpoint sells for a RRP of $14.99 and can be purchased from your local game store or via the

93 Made Games website at www.viewpointgame.com.au.
