OUR STORY

A few years ago New York Game Factory™ was just a gleam in the bleary eyes of its founders, Jeff Gross & Joel Rogers. One day Jeff, reading about a particularly outrageous lawsuit, exclaimed "Holy priceless collection of Etruscan snoods, Batman! - There should be a board game about how we're all suing the heck out of each other, all the time." But being lazy, Jeff did nothing about it (if you knew him, you'd be saying "how typical"). And there the matter lay until 2003 when he and Joel were batting around the idea over lunch in Brooklyn, which, for those of you who don't know, is the coolest part of New York City. Joel said "Holy rising hemlines, Batman, let's make this thing!” They created So Sue Me!™ together, and the Factory was born.

But then a funny thing happened: Jeff & Joel discovered that people loved the game – and they loved making games. Soon Controversy!™ and In Other Words™ were on the market, offering more great fun for families and parties – and family parties. The Factory really kicked into high gear when the Founders were approached by a gentleman we'll call the Mysterious Inventor with a line of six games based on America's favorite sports: basketball, baseball, football, soccer, hockey, and golf. The first three led to Drive 'N Dunk™, Double Play!™, Red Zone!™, while the second three are in development for 2007 release. And let's not forget the devilish (but easy-to-learn) dice game, Gazootch™, which came to the Factory from deep in the ethnic neighborhoods of Brooklyn. All seven of New York Game Factory's games echo Jeff and Joel's promise to all, which is the Factory's motto: We Make Fun!™

SO SUE ME! IN THE NEWS

Playthings, The First and Only Toy Business Authority writes:

"New York Game Facory, LLC is serious about having a major impact in the games business. According to the company's owners Jeff Gross and Joel Rogers, "America's second favorite pastime is suing each other." So Sue Me! is an interactive board game designed for 2-6 players or teams ages teen to adult. It is a combination of fun, nerve, luck and strategy that allows you to "sue your friends and take their stuff," the co-owners tell PLAYTHINGS. A spin of the wheel, a roll of the dice and some clever negotiating help players collect cash, seize assets—and drive their friends into bankruptcy! No legal knowledge is required or even desirable. "Toy Fair is the industry's premier launch pad," quips Gross. "Given the ongoing growth of the board game category, we felt this was the ideal time and place to introduce So Sue Me!"
