THE COMPANY

Origame publishes modern Asian board games to showcase the best of Asian cultures, cuisines, and talents. We believe board games have the power to build relationships and communities.

​

With distribution and retail partnerships in Taiwan, Korea. and Japan, Origame aims to build an Asian community of board game designers, social innovators, and artists to distil and re-define the concept of Asian-style board games.

​

Origame is actively engaged in fostering the board game community and culture in Singapore and beyond. We offer customised design services to communities as well as corporate and governmental organisations.

Daryl Chow, PhD is a globally acclaimed and award-winning board game designer with extensive international experience and networks in the board game industry.

Daryl designs with the purpose of spreading happiness and culture, and though he designs for companies throughout Asia and the world, the games produced through Origame are the closest to his heart.
