Hello Reps!
As we move into 4th quarter, we want to highlight our fantastic game selection here at Chronicle Books. We have a little something for everyone, from Playing Cards to Bingo to Donner Dinner Party! All of these make fantastic gifts for any game lover and are a great addition for stores for the holidays.
I want to give a particular shout-out to Donner Dinner Party, which released earlier this season. We’ve been getting great feedback to this game from a variety of gaming blogs, Comic Con, and the game nights we’ve hosted. Check out the publicity hit from The Dice Tower (below and also linked HERE) to view a video of game play which hopefully can help you sell this title (we encourage you to play the game yourself so you know how best to sell it). The video will give you some great tips to use while selling it to your customers. Don’t forget to carry this title with you to appointments, as the art and packaging also really help sell it!
We’ve already sold over 5,000 units and want to make sure that we are all focused on making this new game a success!

Game Highlight: Donner Dinner Party
Who's safe when there are cannibals hiding among you? That's the question at the heart of this fast-paced game of social deduction in which cannibals and pioneers face off in a fight for survival. Set in the winter of 1846, players are members of the ill-fated Donner Party wagon train, stranded atop a mountain with no food. Who will avoid becoming tonight's dinner and make it off the mountain alive? And who are the suspicious scoundrels hungry for human flesh? Rowdy, outrageous, and full of playful deception, this party game packs a delightfully wicked twist! |
« The Dice Tower has given Donner Dinner Party the seal of approval in their latest video review! The influential gaming network, with 159k YouTube subscribers, called Donner Dinner Party “Well made, interesting. This is a clever game. I think I’m going to continue exploring this one for a while. Play it with a few different groups and see how it goes. So far, I’ve been very happy with it and I do like the tension and the discussions that organically come into the game play.” (I highly encourage you to check out this link to see their game play, it will really help you to get a quick understanding of the game to better hand-sell).
