Buildzi

For the past several years, Kevin and Steve have had a blast selling their growing family of simple, fast games: TENZI, SLAPZI, ITZI and PAIRZI. Its been a whirlwind of laughs and fun.

Yet behind the scenes, there was another story playing out.Kevins son, Collin (who had invented SLAPZI), had another idea for a game. He told his father, When kids play with blocks, theyreusually slow and deliberate. Why dont we take regular building blocks and turn them into a speed game?

A few weeks later, Collin pitched the idea to Kevin and Steve. Steve also liked the concept of a speed building game, but he didnt like using regular old blocks. So off and on over the next three years the guys would meet and, bit-by-bit, improve the game, which they had started calling BUILDZI. But those old block shapescontinued to bother Steveso when he stumbled upon the cool pentomino shapes you see in the game now, well things just fell into place!

Of all the games that Kevin and Steve have created, BUILDZI has taken the longest, by far. But, as they say, Rome wasntbuiltin a day.

We hope you enjoy!
