Sponsored. Brain Games Publishing, known for its innovative and engaging, award-winning board games, has officially announced its expansion into the Canadian market via an agreement with Lion Rampant Imports.

Founded in 2004 in Latvia, Brain Games Publishing made a name for itself with popular games such as ICECOOL®, Deductio, and TEAM3, known for their creativity, accessibility, and appeal to a wide range of players. By tapping into the Canadian market, Brain Games will bring these unique experiences to an audience with a growing interest in board games.
About the Partnership
Lion Rampant Imports, headquartered in Brantford, Ontario, has a long-standing reputation for delivering diverse, high-quality games to retailers across Canada. By teaming up with Lion Rampant, Brain Games will leverage this well-established distribution network to reach a broader audience in Canada’s rapidly growing tabletop gaming community. This collaboration allows Brain Games to bring its titles to Canadian gamers through local retailers, supporting faster and more efficient access to their products.
"Canada is a natural fit for us," says Egils Grasmanis, CEO of Brain Games Publishing. "We are more than happy and proud to partner with Lion Rampant to serve our Canadian fans - children and families with board games that bring people together, are easy to learn, and connect all ages. We believe our games resonate with the values and interests of this audience. In fact, the current ICECOOL world champion is from Canada," he adds.
Bringing Quality Games to People Everywhere
Brain Games whose mission is to develop and publish award-winning games, and bring them to people all over the world, aims to create games that challenge minds, forge connections, and fuel imagination.

Ice Cool, a game of penguin flicking and dexterity, is one of the company's most notable titles, earning several awards including the prestigious Kinderspiel des Jahres in 2017. Other popular games in its portfolio, such as Deductio and Team3, showcase Brain Games' knack for creating interactive, visually appealing, and easy-to-learn games that encourage social play.
A Growing Demand for Tabletop Games in Canada
The Canadian board game market has been steadily growing, driven by increasing interest in family-friendly and educational games.
