We are Hegemonic Project Games
Welcome to Hegemonic Project Games, where we blend creativity, education, and innovation to develop unique experiences beyond traditional gaming. Our passion lies in creating board games that go beyond entertainment, aiming to engage players in thought-provoking narratives and explore the intricacies of real-world dynamics, through the lenses of politics, economy and other academic disciplines.
Each of our projects is developed in collaboration with esteemed academics from Universities from all around the world.
The journey began with the creation of our successful title, Hegemony: Lead your Class to Victory, which immersed players in the political and economic landscape of a fictional nation. This achievement fuelled our dedication to designing games with educational value, encouraging players to delve deeper into the realms of politics, economics, and society.
