Hachette Boardgames UK is bringing Czech Games Edition’s Wispwood to the UK next month.

Wispwood is an abstract tile-laying game designed by Reed Ambrose and illustrated by Štěpán Drašťák. The game marks Hachette Boardgames UK’s first collaboration with CGE.

“We are proud to add CGE to our growing list of partners,” said Flavien Loisier, CEO of Hachette Boardgames UK.

“CGE have a reputation for making exceptional games and Wispwood is definitely one of them. We are excited to be working with UK stores on making this game a success, especially with it releasing just before Christmas, the busiest period of the year for retailers.”

CGE added: “After meeting the Hachette Boardgames UK team at UKGE earlier this year, we were struck by their professionalism, passion and commitment to every title they represent. Their approach aligns perfectly with our values, which is why we’re delighted to partner with them as our exclusive UK distributor for Wispwood.”
