Dan Yarrington of Tabletop Tycoon

Dan Yarrington, entrepreneur, founder, and CEO of Tabletop Tycoon, publishes games and accessories that bring people together to make memories around a table. Wanting to appeal to audiences of all types, Tabletop Tycoon has different imprints that curate games for different audiences to follow, including:

• Victory Point Games- Strategy games that recreate historical events for players to partake in using strong decision-making and strategic skill.
• Starling Games- Theme-driven games for the hobbyist gamer, crafting elegant mechanics with beautiful artwork and outstanding components.
• Sparkworks- Casual and party games for friends and family to enjoy together. Some of these titles are based on the classic fan-favorite movie The Princess Bride!
• Flying Meeple- Fun and engaging board and card games for the whole family.
• PolyHero Dice- Imaginative themed sets of dice to accompany level-up your tabletop RPG hero in games like Dungeons and Dragons or Pathfinder. Each set of dice is themed and shaped to replicate weapons and heroic equipment that can be found in these games.

Dan has been in the industry since 1996, but his passion for tabletop games started at a very young age while playing games that his family received from Toys for Tots. The time his family spent playing those games together inspired him to venture on a quest to bring more games to kids everywhere and give back to his community, which led him to ventures in wholesale sales and distribution, logistics and fulfillment, and even running friendly local game stores before building the Tabletop Tycoon publishing company he runs today.

Now an official Corporate Sponsor of Toys for Tots, Tabletop Tycoon and Dan Yarrington have raised enough money to donate over 100,000 games to families around the US and are adding to that count each day. Further realizing Dan’s vision, Tabletop Tycoon has committed to donate a game to Toys for Tots for every standalone game sold from Tabletop Tycoon’s Amazon store. It kills two birds with one stone, in my opinion, buy a new game and give back all at the same time!

Tabletop Tycoon also donates games to Toys for Tots whenever they sell a Board Game Booster Box — a unique mystery combination of 4 board and card games from a wide variety of publishers — and has proudly taken on giving initiatives that benefit The Spiel Foundation, Families in Transition — New Horizons, and other groups in their community.

This is the true mission of Tabletop Tycoon: making the world better, one game at a time. Dan’s innovations in gaming continue to drive him forward, and his greatest joy comes from crafting games that are memorable and rewarding.

Expect to see great things from Dan Yarrington as he continues contributing to the impressive growth of the tabletop games industry!
