Much of the world has entered some sort of a lockdown. Cafes, pubs, theaters and so much more are now closed as people need to stay at home. Keeping people away from other people is a vital tool in preventing further escalation of COVID-19. Many European countries, including Spain and Italy, where Raiser Games and 34BigThings are right in the middle of the COVID-19 battle.

In Spain and particularly in Italy, lockdowns on public movement in order to slow down to spread of COVID-19 have been in place for some time. It’s a proven method to stem the rise in new cases, as plenty of people may have COVID-19 and be entirely unaware, passing it on to other, more vulnerable people unknowingly while out and about. If having a game to play when people are at home relaxes them at what is a stressful time for everyone, then we’re happy to play out part.
