About Us
Cation Arts is an independent board game studio and publisher. Since 2020, we’ve been dedicated to creating fun, beautiful tabletop games that bring people together.
We work on both sides of the world. Our studio is based in Abu Dhabi, home of Cation Arts Middle East FZ LLC. Our US company, Cation Arts Inc., leads our licensing and crowdfunding. That means we’re close to our players in North America, our largest market, and rooted in one of the most multicultural, cosmopolitan places on earth.
That second part matters to us. Our tables have always been full of players from everywhere, and that gives us a unique perspective on what makes a game work across cultures, languages and play styles. We design for that table.
What we’ve built
Conqueror: Final Conquest was where it started. It’s a 3–6 player strategy game of alliances, betrayal and bribery set in the ancient world, designed by Mohammad Al Qadi. It’s now carried by retailers across the US, Canada and the UK, and the line continues with Conqueror: Empire Rises.
All Time Wrestling brought wrestling legends to the tabletop in a fast card-and-dice game. It has grown from a single box into a full line: the core game, Extreme Edition, Rumble in Abu Dhabi, the Eddie Guerrero Limited Edition, Tag Team Edition, Women’s Edition and a Jeff Hardy expansion.
