University Games

Founded on April 1st, 1985, we have developed and manufactured over 200 games in the past 24 years. University Games was founded by Bob Moog and Cris Lehman. Bob and Cris always loved playing games with their families, and grew up thinking that fun and learning were a part of everyday life. As adults, they recognized a developing niche in social interaction and learning games for adults and children, and that is how University Games began. The company philosophy has always been to offer games that encourage social interaction and imagination through gameplay, with learning sprinkled in to season the game. University Games has an in-house product development team that has made it the leading original game producer in the industry. With games like Kids on Stage™, Totally Gross®, Brain Quest® and the Eric Carle Learning System, it is no wonder adults and children have come to expect great educational and entertaining products from University Games. By the end of the 1990s, University Games had successfully expanded to markets outside the United States. Now in over 28 countries, the company has become a major player in the international game industry through increased distribution, better marketing, experienced staff and strategic acquisitions including Great Explorations®, Raintree Puzzles and Games™, Topline Toys®, Colorforms®, BePuzzled® and JP Kids. We constantly seek to keep our products contemporary through new product development and building on the licenses we carry to keep them new and exciting. Since its early years, University Games has won numerous toy awards from Parent's Choice, Family Fun Magazine, Child Magazine, Parenting Magazine and Dr. Toy to name a few. In 2009, University Games acquired the assets of Sababa Toys and is proud to introduce the amazing Front Porch Classics® line from Sababa to retailers and consumers.
