Zoch at the SPIEL '07 in Essen, 01.11.07

Our exhibition stands at this year’s SPIEL ‘07 (Essen International Game Days) attracted many visitors. Apart from our main stand where players could try our new products, there were two tournament stands for: "Burg Appenzell" (“Appenzell Castle”), "Bausack" (“Sac O’ Bricks”) and "Heckmeck am Bratwurmeck" (“Pickomino”).

Highlights of the trade fair were the awards for our "Burg Appenzell". The game was awarded the "Deutschen Kinderspiel-Preis" (“German Children’s Game Prize") and the "Essener Feder" (“Essen Feather”) for the best game rules. Both authors, Jens-Peter Schliemann and Bernhard Weber met with enthusiastic cheese hunters during several author and autograph sessions organized at our stand.

Our Zoch giveaway this year was "Völlig Mausgeflippt":  a game extension of two new shoving tiles for "Burg Appenzell". 

Those of you who could not obtain this game extension at the exhibition can order it on our website as a spare part (see Service).  

All in all, it was a successful fair with many exiting encounters, games and a great deal of fun!
