ABOUT US
Bringing people together since 2016
OUR MISSION
Blue Wasatch Games has a mission to create products that bring people together.
The world needs more time together, talking, learning about each other, and understanding one another. I have found that game time around the table is one of the places that this happens. The world may not need our games, but it does need encouragement to spend the time that games like ours, and many other like them, create.
WHO WE ARE
Hi, I'm Justin Martin and I'm the Founder of Blue Wasatch Games. We are located in Bountiful Utah and have brought 4 card and dice games to the market.
I started this business because I wanted to do something that mattered. Working in the finance industry for 6 years just wasn't scratching the itch of doing something positive and fulfilling. My friend and I launched a kickstarter for Clash of the Cards back in 2016 with no experience, but somehow that started it all.
I am so thankful for all of the support from family, friends, and customers for making this business possible. I grew up playing and loving many types of games - mostly Risk, Monopoly, Rook, Skip-bo, Phase 10 and a bunch of others. I believe that time interacting with family and friends around the game table should be treasured. Relationships are developed, friends are made, and ok, maybe sometimes a friendly rivalry as well. We strive to elevate the games that enable quality time together and I hope you'll find our games do that for your time spent with friends and family!
