FAQs

 

Below are some common questions we are asked. This will expand as we get more questions!

 

Q. Why 'Playing Cards'?

 

Poker-sized playing cards are the most popular size cards in North America; many people are comfortable with their size and shape. As well, they sometimes are cheaper to print (being a standard size), and that savings reduced the cost of the game.

 

Q. Where did you come up with the name MiniMax?

 

Our solgan is "Small package, big game." We wanted games to be small (in both size and cost), while being 'big' in fun and strategy. Mini. Max. MiniMax. (The designer Garth Elliott also had a favourite cat named Max, but he swears that had nothing to do with it!)

 

Q. These games look interesting, but.... where are they!?

 

Game design is a long process. We felt it was important to have an Internet presence as we continue to develop, play-test, and produce these games. The games listed are past the initial design phase and are being play-tested. We want our games to be as good as possible, with a minimum of errors, oversights, and 'broken' rules. Designing games is an art form, and you can't rush art.

 

Q. OK, so where and when can I buy one?

 

Marketing and distribution plans are in the works. We want to keep creative control of our games, so we are reluctant to licence our intellectual property to a traditional game publisher. Tentatively, we plan to self-publish and sell the games through this website, or a third-party distributor. You can stay informed of our progress by following us on social media through the links at the bottom of this page.
