I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve watched fellow board gamers transport their games in the worst possible way. The intention is always great — bringing your games to share with friends, introducing new titles, creating memorable game nights. But the execution? It’s usually a mess. Crushed corners, scattered components, soaked boxes, aching shoulders… All because of the wrong bag.

Fifteen days of sun, laughter, grilled corn on the barbecue… and board games. Lots of board games. That was the theme of our recent family vacation — but what made this particular trip truly unforgettable wasn’t just the company or the games themselves. It was something as simple, yet as transformative, as the right bag.

If you’ve ever been the designated “game bringer” for a night with friends, you know the feeling. You’ve got shelves full of amazing board games, each promising hours of fun. You start making a list—maybe Wingspan for the bird lovers, Clank! for the adventurers, Abyss for the strategists, and a few smaller card games for quick fillers. You’re excited. Your friends are excited. And then reality hits: how are you going to carry all of them?

Summer is here, the suitcases are coming out of storage, and travel plans are filling the calendar. If you’re like me—and like many true board game enthusiasts—you know there’s one thing you can’t leave behind when you go on holiday: your favourite board games. Whether you’re headed to the beach, a mountain cabin, a friend’s house, or a week-long gaming retreat, there’s nothing like the joy of pulling out a beloved game and introducing it to family or friends.

When a board game enthusiast shares their excitement about our May The Game backpack with such passion, we can’t help but stop, smile, and say thank you. That’s exactly what happened when we came across a post from @board.game.dad on Instagram. His feedback is full of authenticity and experience, and it speaks directly to that community of gamers who want to carry their passion safely—and in style.
