Steve Jackson Games has provided a rare glimpse into the inner trials and tribulations of a long-standing successful game company by releasing their
Report to the Stakeholders for 2016. As noted on the page, Steve Jackson Games actually has only one shareholder -
Steve Jackson. The Report is for Stakeholders, those people intimately involved in the success or failure of this great game company - ie. the employees, distributors, retailers, and of course fans and customers. The Report goes into detail about what products succeeded or failed in 2016, what Kickstarters are suffering, which have succeeded and what games are coming in the future. Some of the highlights include the Munchkin line of games, of which several reprints and homage sets were released. The much anticipated
Munchkin CCG, and Car Wars 6th Edition unfortunately were pushed back, and didn't make it to release in 2016. Steve Jackson did manage to release 5 new games in 2016 -
Ogre: Objective 218,
Simon's Cat,
I Hate Zombies,
Bill & Ted's Excellent Boardgame and
Batman: The Animated Series Dice Game.
There are many more details about 2016 at the house Munchkin built in the official report, which can be read
