Celebrating the game creators!
Let’s face it, our tables would feel fairly empty without the games we play on them. Being part of the tabletop gaming hobby is the whole reason we began creating our tables!
And at the heart of our hobby? The independent designers. Driving innovation forward, continuously experimenting and taking the risks to push the envelope of what tabletop gaming can be.
This is why we love collaborating with them! Below you’ll find a dedicated space for the indie designers and studios we partner with, showing off their games on our tables, and flying the Arcadia flag!
Minor Disaster Games is a family business created by brothers Kristian and Liam as the design team and Kristian’s wife Caley taking on administration and social media. After launching our flagship title Trouble On The Tempus at UK Games Expo 2024, we decided to form an official company to operate under. Minor Disaster Games officially launched in September 2024.
Trouble on the Tempus is a game about travelling through the depths of space in a lovely spaceship … as it catches fire and the electronics explode and it falls apart around you. You’re pretty much doomed. Luckily you’re in a time machine, part of an exploratory mission to test the latest time traversing technology, but you pushed the ship too far and things have gone horribly wrong.
