“I am beyond happy with the final result of all of Snapshot’s hard work,” said Isaac Childres, CEO of Cephalofair Games and creator of acclaimed board games Gloomhaven and FROSTHAVEN. “It has been a joy to play FROSTHAVEN as a video game experience, and I think Snapshot has really done right by all players - keeping the gameplay in line with the original board game, while also improving onboarding and UX for new and old players alike.”
“FROSTHAVEN is an incredibly ambitious project,” said Julian Gollop, CEO of Snapshot Games and creator of X-COM. “There are such deep and intricate systems, plus a dedicated and knowledgeable fanbase to live up to. Staying true to the tabletop version and collaborating with the brilliant Isaac Childres and Cephalofair Games has been rewarding, and we’re proud of what the team has accomplished.”
“Our players have been crucial in shaping FROSTHAVEN,” said Hristo Petkov, Game Director of FROSTHAVEN. “Throughout early access, we’ve listened closely to feedback and improved many aspects, including onboarding, user experience, systems, and overall polish.
