Reiner Knizia, Famed Family Game Designer, To Help Drive APL Publishing Effort |
Avalanche Press, Ltd., today announced the signing of an agreement with famed game designer Reiner Knizia to produce a series of family-style games.
"This moves us into the first rank of game publishers," said Avalanche Press President Brian L. Knipple. "We are proud to add Dr. Knizia's fine work to our line, which should give us the same primacy in family games that we enjoy with our military history games."
Avalanche Press Ltd. produces a line of military history board games and has moved into the general game market with SURVIVAL OF THE WITLESS, profiled this month in The New York Times, and the hot-selling AIRLINES card game. The company has also worked closely with computer giant SSI on such acclaimed computer strategy games as PANZER GENERAL II, PANZER COMMANDER and PEOPLE'S GENERAL.
"I am delighted!" said Dr. Knizia, winner of the German game of the year award, held to be the world's most prestigious game honor. "I look very much forward to the new publications."
Reiner Knizia is known for many well-loved game designs, including MODERN ART, TITAN: THE ARENA, THROUGH THE DESERT, MEDICI and many, many more.
"Dr. Knizia's accomplishments are almost truly countless," Knipple said. "The marriage of his design genius with our well-proven graphic and developmental skills will provide game players years of enjoyment."
