Simon & Jan - because time together is valuable!
We are Simon & Jan, a young publishing house from the Lower Rhine. What started as an idea in a student shared apartment a few years ago has become a creative home for board games, books, and gift items that bring people together at the table to laugh, reflect, and share stories. What began with "Tell Each Other More" as a small game series with simple questions is now a growing brand with a clear signature: accessible, surprising, high-quality.
Our products work according to a simple principle: quickly explained, quickly played, long in the mind. We rely on strong ideas instead of bloated rules, on humor with heart, and on designs that immediately stand out on the shelf. Whether it's a family get-together, a shared apartment evening, or a gift for someone who "already has everything" - Simon & Jan provides the opportunity to start a conversation.
Well-known lines such as "Tell Each Other More," "The Friendship Book for Adults," or our "Honest Milestones": Each product is iteratively tested, lovingly designed, and packaged in such a way that it immediately makes you want to pick it up in stores.
Why Simon & Jan in the range?
-Highly suitable as a gift: clear occasions (birthdays, housewarmings, game nights, bachelorette parties, colleague farewells)
- Quick access: 2-5 minutes of explanation, immediately playable, high replay value
- Strong visibility: eye-catching titles, concise texts, "conversation starters" at the POS
- Cross-channel appeal: Many customers discover us online and specifically inquire in-store
- Well-thought-out details: high-quality feel, understandable rules, and compact formats
We sell through brick-and-mortar stores and online platforms – and consistently design our products to work just as well offline as they do in-store. Our goal is to complement your store with items that not only sell, but also spread the word.
Simon & Jan stands for fairness, commitment, and uncomplicated cooperation. We listen, deliver reliably, and continue to develop – also with feedback from your stores. If you're looking for games, books, and gift ideas that connect people and bring a smile to the shelves, you've come to the right place.
Simon & Jan – Play more. Tell me more. Laugh more.
