Ystari Games

Ystari (created in 2004, and owned by Asmodee since 2015 though since that date appear to be dormant) are a small but successful French company known for their often-quirky and quirkily-titled board games. Their first game was called Ys, and for many years all of their original titles contained a 'y' and an 's'. Ys was followed by Caylus, Mykerinos and Yspahan. Ystari released on average two original in-house games a year, though for a short time they produced the French-language versions of some big titles by other companies, such as Agricola, Le Havre and Race for the Galaxy.

In 2015 Ystari were acquired by the French giant Asmodee and since that date have not released a new game. Shakespeare Backstage, a small expansion to their last game Shakespeare, was promoted and released in 2016, but Ystari's website has not been updated since that time.
