Dotted Games is the exclusive new studio dedicated to the project. It will nurture and develop all the games within the Lego and Asmodee partnership. The experienced team’s mission is to bring the best Lego board games to fans and families. Based in Denmark, it brings decades of experience in the board gaming industry, boasting a remarkable collection of awards between them.
“Embarking on this journey with the Lego Group is exciting, combining their timeless creativity with our passion and expertise for games”
Jaume Fabregat, board games lead, Lego Publishing, said: “We are thrilled to announce our collaboration with Asmodee. It has been a truly inspiring journey. By combining Asmodee’s extensive expertise in board games with the limitless potential of the Lego system, we are unlocking exponential possibilities for innovation in play.”
Monkey Palace, announced earlier this year, kicks off the collaboration. It is a wonderful demonstration of how integrating Lego bricks into board games can provide remarkable play value. It is a light strategy jungle-themed game tailored for two to four players, incorporating both collaborative and competitive elements.
On the back of Monkey Palace, Dotted Games has also been developing Brick Like This! This is a family party game where the key words are teamwork, communication and building with Lego bricks. The game is for 2-8 players, ages 7+ with simple rules for everyone to join in.
