Market Trends

Different from sports or video games, board games pay more attention to the test of multiple ways of thinking, language expression, and emotional intelligence, so they are more suitable for young people's social pursuit of fun and competitiveness. With the change in social methods, board games are popular among young people. First of all, because of the fun of the game itself, most board games require a certain strategy and logic, which arouses everyone's interest and makes most people willing to participate in this social mode, relieving the embarrassment caused by social ice-breaking to a certain extent.

The instability of raw materials for card making, rising labor costs, and alternatives may prevent the market from realizing its maximum potential. The digitization of chessboard games will also inhibit the growth of the market. The worldwide adoption of smartphones is leading to the development of mobile applications based on chessboard games. Traditionally, several types of games are played in physical formats, such as dice, cards, chessboards, and tokens. However, with the advent of digital versions of smartphones, tablets, computers, and video games, attitudes have shifted.
