Hasbro is closing the Seattle offices of its Cranium subsidiary, according to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer.  As part of the shutdown, 11 of the 19 employees in the office are to be laid off, with eight offered positions at other Hasbro offices, including one at Wizards of the Coast, according to the report. 

Hasbro acquired the company over a year ago for $77.5 million (see “Hasbro to Acquire Cranium”).  The company’s lines will be handled out of other Hasbro offices.
