Gnolithic is a board game design studio located in Canada’s capital, and established in 2009 by designers Lucas Castro and Lara D'Addario. We are committed to our vision of creating entertaining and visually stunning board games that give our players a wide range of meaningful strategic choices.
Gnolithic Studio will be using this site to provide articles and information on our board games, as well as game reviews and articles on game design theory (particularly board game design, but much of it will be universally applicable) in our blog.
To find out more about what projects we have on the go right now visit our games section.
We are always glad to receive comments, questions, or feedback on our products or our service standards. Please visit our contact page to get in touch with us. Or join us at our forums to engage in discussions with us and other fans of Gnolithic's board games.
Thank you for your interest in Gnolithic Game Design Studio!
