Who are Word Forge Games? Word Forge Games is a dynamic, well established game manufacturer and publisher run by Mark Rapson out of the UK. They exploded onto the scene in 2015 with their first game: Devil's Run. Since then, they have launched a plethora of games including the award winning D-Day Dice, SAS Rogue Regiment, Airborne in Your Pocket, and Pocket Landship. In recent years, they have carved themselves a niche with solo play war themed games. What makes them such a great fit for the ‘Heroes’ range and specifically 'Heroes of the Pacific’, is that they have rescued failed Kickstarters before. Approximately five years ago they completed ‘Airborne in your Pocket’ for nearly 1000 backers (who had been waiting 8 years), and in the process also rescued the D-Day Dice franchise. More recently they rescued the company Nightfall Games and its long running RPG franchise: SLA Industries. Since then, D-Day Dice and SLA have gone from strength to strength and the teams behind them continue to work closely with Word Forge.
