(Cincinnati, OH. / December 14, 2006) - Late for the Sky Production Company began making specialty board games in 1984. Their first game was MIAMIOPOLY, based on Miami University in Oxford, Ohio. The company founder and president is a 1980 graduate of Miami University and her time spent there served as the inspiration for the first game. The title list soon spread to around 80 major U.S. colleges. Each game is a walk around a specific university and the board spaces are the campus buildings, local businesses and traditions that are special to that school.
The 1990s and the beginning of the 21st century have proven to be an incredible time of reinvention and innovation. In addition to their extremely popular COLLEGEOPOLY and CITY IN-A-BOX lines, Late for the Sky has brought to the marketplace some of the best selling board games based on popular culture themes like decades, animals and pets, music and movies, food and spirits.
They have also positioned themselves as one of the most complete board game production and manufacturing companies in the U.S. for customized games designed specifically for companies and organizations. Occupying a 60,000 square foot building, they handle everything from design, printing and manufacturing, to assembly and distribution in house. They are hard at work researching the next group of games for the upcoming year, so stay posted by regularly visiting their new, ecommerce website, developed by Speartek, Inc.
