Day 0 of - mainly involving loading and unloading a van, disassembling and reassembling shelves, opening and collapsing A LOT of boxes, sweating, eating nice pastries, and singing along to 90s bangers on the motorway as we drove from Brighton to Birmingham!

We'll be very ready for a ๐Ÿบ tonight! ๐Ÿ˜…

It's fun getting to see more behind the scenes of a huge event like this, and we're looking forward to it being full of fun folk tomorrow.

We're right by the Visitor Services in Hall 3 (3-B33)

See you soon! Dave and Katrina ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿชฉ๐ŸŒ

Hoorah! This year we've graduated from Dave roaming around with a backpack - to Katrina, Dave (and friends!) hosting our very own stand: 3-B33.

The Party Snail and Ninja Hamsters are getting ready to give you a warm welcome and to help you Slow Down And Have Some Fun ๐ŸŒ๐Ÿชฉ

We're excited to see your Clay It Again sculptures and What the Scribble masterpieces, and to get a bit of chaos going with Ninja Hamster Apocalypse Disco and Jungle Hustle!

See you next week!

โ˜€๏ธ Great to visit Johnโ€™s Toyland in Swanage at the weekend and finally meet Dan (shop manager) in person โ˜€๏ธ

Theyโ€™ve stocked our games from the very beginning and have backed us with plenty of orders over that time. That kind of support makes a real difference when youโ€™re a small indie finding your feet.

Johnโ€™s is a brilliant independent family shop thatโ€™s been going 50 years! It was great to chat toys and games and swap stories with people who really know their stuff.

If youโ€™re ever in Swanage or along the Jurassic Coast, itโ€™s well worth a visit - a fantastic range, and Dan & Karen are genuinely lovely people. (And not on Instagram!)

And if you run an indie shop yourself - weโ€™d love to work with more like Johnโ€™s ๐Ÿ™‚

๐ŸŒ Time for another Party Snail Game team intro. Say hey to Beth, who's actually been around from day one, bringing Dave's ideas to life - designing all our games as well as creating the branding and t-shirts ๐ŸŒ

Here's what you need to know:

๐ŸŽฒ Fave Games
Ooh tricky, I love a lot of games! A classic has to be Catan, we love that in the house. I enjoy games where you get to interact on other peopleโ€™s turns.ย 
A childhood favourite is Cluedo, really enjoy a good murder mystery, I always have to be Miss Scarlet ๐Ÿ’ƒ

๐Ÿš€ Competitive Rating: 7/10..Although Iโ€™m pretty sure people around me would say higher. I like to win, who doesnโ€™t?! ๐Ÿ˜‚

โ™Ÿ๏ธWhy Games?
We have always played games together as a family. It's been so fun getting to work on the design of them with Party Snail - being part of that creative process is a real joy.ย ย 

๐Ÿฟ Ideal game snacks:
Iโ€™m a BIG crisps and dip fan! Tortilla chips with sour cream, guacamole, salsa are favourites! Also olives, very specifically Perello olives! And a fun drink is always needed.
(Clearly Katrina and Beth are well matched for a games night on the snack front!) ๐Ÿซ’๐Ÿป

๐Ÿ’› What else brings you joy?
I love yoga, Iโ€™m about to complete my yoga teacher training.
Iโ€™m a big reader, specifically the fantasy/romance genre. (Throne of Glass, anyone?!)
I also just love spending time with friends and family, getting outside and making the most of living by the sea/countryside.
And Iโ€™m a big big foodie, I love to cook!!

Listening on repeat ๐Ÿ˜‚ One of the best things about What The Scribble is seeing everyone's drawings.

Would you have guessed this was meant to be a ๐Ÿšฝ ??!

What's been making you laugh over the holidays?

๐Ÿš€ Exciting news! This year for the first time ever, Party Snail will be exhibiting at ! But we need your help to make it happenโ€ฆ

Dave would love some cheery company on the stand, ready to teach people how to play our games and have a lot of fun in the process.

๐ŸŒ Weโ€™ll sort you exhibitor tickets to the whole Expo that get you in early each day, a Party Snail tee and free Party Snail Games in exchange for 2 or 3 half days of your time over the weekend ๐ŸŒ

DM us if youโ€™re interested or share this with any pals you think might like to join the fun.

๐Ÿ‘‹ Who else is going to be there? Looking forward to seeing familiar faces and making new friends :-)

๐ŸŒ The Party Snail Games team is growing, woop! Meet Katrina, a long time friend of Dave and PSG, whose expressive face you'll see snapped in some of the games promo ๐Ÿ˜ Katrina will be hanging out here on the socials and managing the inboxes (please do say hi), and supporting Dave to get more games out in and around the world!ย 

Here's a little quickfire round to learn a bit more...

๐ŸŽฒ Fave Games
Love a fast paced word game, give me Boggle or Bananagram any day. I love games that are more physically engaged too, so Ninja Hamster and What The Scribble tick my boxes. Ooh and Escape Rooms, do they count?

๐Ÿš€ Competitive Rating: 7/10
Some would say higher, but I say it's all relative! ๐Ÿ˜‚ I definitely like to get enthusiastically stuck in and can get a bit loud, but as long as it's fun I don't mind so much about the win...

โ™Ÿ๏ธWhy Games?
They've always been a way of connecting with my family, especially my twin sister. I like how they give a focus to a gathering and help you get to know people in new ways. Also sometimes it's just nice to have a distraction and be a bit silly

๐Ÿฟ Ideal game snacks
Olives, beer (I'll try not to knock it over when I get excited), chilli tortilla crisps with a sour cream dip - although that does mean lots of finger licking ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธ

๐Ÿ’› What else brings you joy?
The sea, cycling adventures, dancing, writing poems

Available now! A quick 1 minute explainer of our new game Clay It Again - just in time for Christmas! ๐ŸŽ„ You're going to love it. Sorry for the terrible skateboard.

One of my 2026 missions is to try and help more people in the US find our games (without big customs, tariff or shipping hassles!). Which seemed a good excuse to make my first ever trip to Pax Unplugged here in Philly! An amazing array of games and creators are here, and it's been great to already meet lots of fellow indie publishers and inventors while I've been here. If you're here and want to say hi do let me know. I even bumped into one of my all time heroes too, Benjamin Franklin! He says hi.

It's finally (almost!!) here. Can't wait to share our new dough modelling game Clay It Again with you... It's a cracker!

It's been a long and complex process to make this game (by my standards at least!) involving testing almost 100 modelling dough samples ๐Ÿซ , a trip to China to make sure everything was *just right* and most recently endless shopping delays BUT I THINK WE CAN FINALLY ACTUALLY FLIPPING LAUNCH IT NEXT WEEK!*

It's a super fun game, everyone plays and models at the same time so there's no waiting around and it's full of fun, laughter and usually quite bad sculptures for players of all ages ๐Ÿ˜†

Get on our mailing list for a banger launch offer. Think it's going to go down well, I reckon it's a good 'un...

*the games (apart from the lovely sample in video) are currently in Hamburg Germany so fingers crossed there are no more delays ๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜†
