Hero Time were very smart in guiding us how to print what we want, how to save money, and how to achieve good quality. We printed over a dozen games through them. They did an amazing job and I recommend Hero Time to everyone.

Founded in 2019 by Hersh Glueck, Hero Time is a leading board game manufacturer in China. We work with board game creators of all types and backgrounds to help you turn your vision into a reality, whether you’re crowdfunding your game via Kickstarter or already have a successful game and want to scale your production.
Hersh started Hero Time after realizing that the board game manufacturing sector is not very transparent or efficient. Hero Time was founded to change this status quo and provide a platform for you to access all the information and assistance you need while making your board game.
