Camden High Street
Social games built to bring a room together.
Camden Games makes bold, social games that turn an ordinary evening into one people actually remember. We bring people together and give everyone at the table the freedom to be exactly who they are.
We do all of this from a building on Camden High Street that has a history of its own. But that's the next section.
Not new on the block
Three businesses. One address. We’ve been having fun for generations.
1890
In 1980, our building was home to John Simonds - whoever that is. We've spent years trying to find out. Seriously, if anyone knows, let us know.
1994
The building became The Lighthouse - a shop selling everything electrical. And we mean everything. Our founder Gavin started here as a teenager, learning the trade in the very building that would eventually become his.
2014
We moved upstairs. GW Development was founded - the product development side of the business, working on what would become the Camden Games range.
2021
Camden Games opens. The neighbours are already wondering what's going on upstairs.
From the high street to game night
How an idea ends up on your table.
It starts as a rule
Every game begins with a question: what would get a room full of people actually talking? Most ideas get scrapped. The ones that survive are worth playing.
Tested until it breaks
Every game gets played, argued over, and played again. If it doesn't land, it goes back.
Made properly
Thick stock, FSC-certified board, no plastic wrap. Every component chosen because quality games get played more.
On your table
Stocked in our UK warehouse and delivered directly to your door.
A small team. A loud idea.
Camden Games is a small team with a firm opinion about what makes a game worth playing. Every title goes through months of testing before it's ready - by the team, by strangers roped into it and by family members who have long since stopped volunteering. If it doesn't make the room louder, it doesn't make the cut.
The Camden way
Four things we believe make a game worth playing.
01
Easy to learn
You can explain it before the drinks are poured. No rules read aloud, no one left watching.
02
Everyone at the table
Eight-year-olds and grandparents on genuinely equal terms.
03
Bold and expressive
Our games bring out sides of people worth seeing. However that looks at your table.
04
Made for moments
The best evenings become stories. Our games make sure yours does.
