Submit Your Board Game to Antropoceno Games

We publish board games that explore sustainability, ecology, human evolution, and space. If that sounds like your game, read on.

What we look for

Themes we publish:

  • Climate change and ecological systems
  • Biodiversity and conservation
  • Human evolution and society
  • Sustainable development and solutions
  • Space exploration (hopeful and constructive — no dystopia)

Game characteristics:

  • Eurogame or thematic game mechanics
  • Fun, low to mid-weight, 30–120 min play time
  • Designed for meaningful player decisions
  • Playtested with blind playtesters (not just friends and family)
  • Rulebook draft available

What we do NOT publish:

  • Dystopian or nihilistic themes
  • Party games or trivia games (unless deeply thematic)
  • Games that have not been playtested outside the designer’s circle

Our submission process

  1. You fill out our submission form (10–15 minutes) — Share your game’s concept, mechanics, theme, and current state.
  2. We review your submission (2–4 weeks) — Our editorial team evaluates fit with our catalog direction.
  3. If interested, we request a prototype or Print and Play — We playtest internally.
  4. Discussion and next steps — If it is a match, we talk publishing terms.

We respect your time. If your game is not a fit, we will tell you directly and explain why.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a finished game?
No, but it must be playtested. A working prototype with drafted rules is the minimum.

Do I keep my rights during submission?
Yes. Submitting does not transfer any rights. We only discuss licensing if we want to move forward.

What happens to my uploaded files?
Your rulebook and materials are confidential and reviewed only by our editorial team.

Can I submit a game about a topic not listed?
Yes, if it aligns with our mission of constructive, thought-provoking themes. When in doubt, submit it.

Ready to submit?
