Steve Jackson Games has been publishing books, games, and accessories for gaming enthusiasts worldwide for over four decades. From cards and dice to the power of imagination, their diverse product lineup caters to all members of the family. The company's origins can be traced back to 1977 when Steve Jackson began his design work with Metagaming, subsequently establishing his own company in 1980 by acquiring Space Gamer. Today, in 2023, Steve Jackson Games proudly celebrates its 43rd anniversary.
The company's extensive portfolio encompasses more than 1,500 games, expansions, accessories, books, toys, and other items. Their flagship product lines include the beloved Munchkin, the versatile GURPS, the strategic Ogre, the conspiratorial Illuminati, the classic The Fantasy Trip, and the engaging Dungeon Fantasy. Additionally, they offer a wide range of standalone dice games, such as the popular Zombie Dice and Wiz-War.
Munchkin, the company's top-selling game, combines the excitement of dungeon crawling with a humorous twist, eliminating the need for extensive roleplaying. GURPS, on the other hand, represents a Generic Universal RolePlaying System, providing a unified set of rules that can be applied across various genres.
The iconic Ogre, Steve Jackson's first game, originally published in 1977, is a futuristic wargame pitting a single giant robot tank, the Ogre, against a force of infantry and armor. Another standout title from the SJG lineup is Car Wars, a complete redesign of the original autoduelling game, featuring faster gameplay and new plastic miniatures.
Beyond these renowned titles, Steve Jackson Games' diverse product range includes the zombie-themed Zombie Dice, the gelatinous Gelatinous, and many more engaging experiences waiting to be discovered by gaming enthusiasts.
The Illuminati line of games, which includes the core 2nd Edition, as well as expansions like Alternative Truths, Conspiracy Theory, Bavarian Fire Drill, Y2K, and Mutual Assured Distraction, invites players to delve into the realm of conspiracy theories and scheme their way to world domination. These games offer a unique blend of strategy, intrigue, and a touch of the absurd.
With a strong focus on quality, innovation, and customer satisfaction, Steve Jackson Games continues to captivate gaming communities worldwide. Their products have garnered critical acclaim, including the prestigious Origin Award for Best Science Fiction Boardgame. The company's commitment to keeping their offerings up-to-date with current events and references ensures that their games remain engaging and relevant in the ever-evolving world of tabletop gaming.
