Our Story

I am Justus Lehtimaki, a Finnish board game designer born in Espoo, Finland. My dream was to create a military strategy game that realistically represents the geopolitical situation and diplomatic atmosphere of the Cold War era Middle East. The Middle East has always enthralled me and King of the Middle East is my piece of art. The goal of the game is to conquer the Middle East with your troops as a dictator of a Middle Eastern nation. The design of the game began in the early 2020s and took years but the game is now produced and going to be for sale in board game stores and on Amazon this spring. The game is revolutionizing the whole board game scene with its emphasis on social and diplomatic skills. Are you ready to challenge your friends and rule your country to victory?
