Dragori Games is a tabletop game developer and publisher, celebrated for bringing Kickstarter hits like Arena: The Contest and Tanares Adventures to life.
We were founded with a burning passion and a clear mission: to create board games that command everybody’s tables, not merely sit on shelves. This dedication quickly resonated with the gaming community, earning us a cherished reputation among the industry’s respected and praised newcomers.
Our focus is on crafting meticulously designed, deeply engaging games where every detail matters—brought alive by gorgeous miniatures and stunning art that elevate immersion and enrich the narrative.
Made For tables not shelves
We are fully committed to a journey of ever-growing excellence. We’ve cultivated a collaborative environment, uniting world-class talents—from our established in-house designers and industry-standout artists to a dedicated professional team of playtesters.
By building our own robust game development methodology, we ensure the delivery of memorable entertainment and deeply immersive experiences, all founded on massively playtested mechanics, spectacular visuals, expansive lore, and highly detailed miniatures.
All this honest effort has yielded the most precious gift a board game company can receive: an amazing, growing community. Today, our community is our heart. Their ideas push every prototype from‘good’ to‘great.’
Our Story

First leap in the air
The first Kickstarter campaign for Arena: The Contest raised $750 000! It affirmed their vision to create the best game possible, and community feedback was key in refining many aspects. They loved working in the board game industry so much that the decision to start a new creation, Tanares Adventures, felt like a natural evolution.
Taking Flight
Tanares Adventures launched to even greater acclaim. This success allowed Alex and Clayton to dedicate themselves fully to Dragori Games, leaving their other jobs behind. After the challenges of the COVID lockdown, they expanded, hiring a talented team to develop and polish their growing library of games, and warmly welcomed Michael to the company.
