Gang Up! was developed & tested over a period of 2 years and was brought to life through a successful Kickstarter Campaign in January 2015. The game was printed by ‘Cartamundi‘ and shortly after that, about 500 copies were shipped to Kickstarter-backers all over the world. The remainder of that first print run was then sold at conventions and to local gamestores. During 2016 we updated the game & prepared a second print, which has now been published by HOT Games (in English) & Czacha Games (in Polish).
Gang Up! is developed by Robin Keijzer (game designer, artist) and Paul van der Meer (game designer, writer). Both Robin and Paul have over 15 years of experience in developing games, while working for large video-game companies. This game is made in the Netherlands.
Many people were involved during the creation of this game. Your enthusiasm and feedback is still greatly appreciated! We sincerely thank you all!
