This was a very personal project for me. Let me explain…
Myself and Megs had a passion for board games and card games and we loved playing lots of different ones with our twins and extended family when they came to visit.
We often talked how it would be really cool to develop some of our ideas. Back in early 2024 Megs ordered some playing cards and blank stickers and we spent a Sunday afternoon actually creating the prototype version of ‘The Hunt for Bigfoot’ – a family-friendly, fun, easy to learn, card game. We spent many months finessing the game play and testing it with various people. Everyone seemed to enjoy it and when we visited Norwich Games Con in 2024 we excitedly agreed that we’d work towards getting a stall and selling it there in a few years time.
Then in December last year Megs passed away from cancer and my world imploded. I was lost and struggling day to day without her. I knew I needed something to focus on and after a chat with my brother-in-law and Megs dad I took a huge step and booked a table at the 2025 convention even though I’d no idea I was going to achieve it.
From February to the end of June I spent all my spare time pouring everything I had into the game myself and Megs had created and had dreamed of selling. I will admit it was tough and there were times I wanted to give up, but this was part of Meg’s legacy.
With the support of family and friends I did it!
