URBIS

Cities Want to Play! See You at URBIS?

Have you heard that even smart cities need a little fun? At Giftora and ChciDeskovku, we certainly think so! And that's exactly why we're heading to the biggest smart city meetup – URBIS 2025 in Brno. Come and hear how modern technology and ancient game principles can work together to build stronger communities.

We invite you to our presentation and our booth, where you'll discover why a board game might just be the smartest marketing tool in today's digital age.

What do we actually do? (And why should you care?)

You might be thinking, "What's a board game company doing at a Smart Cities conference?" The answer is simple: We help cities, municipalities, and companies communicate smartly and build relationships with people.

Giftora isn't just about promotional items. It's about smart gifts that have meaning and don't end up forgotten in a drawer.
Chci Deskovku ("I Want a Board Game") is our creative engine. We transform complex strategies, visions, or city stories into an original board game that everyone will love to play.

Imagine that instead of a dry brochure, you give citizens or visitors a game that entertainingly guides them through the city's history, explains the new waste sorting system, or introduces a planned development. That's communication that people enjoy and remember.

Why board games? Isn't that a bit retro?

Sure, we get it. In the age of artificial intelligence and virtual reality, a board game can seem like an antique. But the numbers and the human brain speak clearly:

People remember what they hold in their hands. The brand recall rate for a board game is an incredible 92%, compared to just 31% for digital ads.
A game is an experience, not an ad. When playing, people focus, laugh, and connect. They create positive memories that they associate with you.
It lasts for ages. The average game stays in a household for 24 months. That's two years of constant, voluntary, and pleasant interaction with your story.

In an era when we're all saturated with screens, a physical game offers something real. And today, that might be the biggest innovation of all.

How does it all work? We create stories, not just boxes

Our job isn't to just slap your logo on an existing game. That would be boring. Together with you, we create a game completely from scratch.

We listen to your story: What do you want to tell people? What is your goal?
We design the game mechanics: We'll come up with rules and principles that match your theme and are fun to play.
We create the design and content: From illustrations to the text on the cards, everything will be yours.
We handle production: We assemble the game for you using our own facilities and trusted partners. Thanks to our cooperation with sheltered workshops, our services can also be used as a form of "substitute fulfillment" for companies' social responsibility quotas.

The result is a tool that educates, entertains, connects, and leaves an impression that no PowerPoint presentation ever could.

Come get inspired (and get a gift!)

Tired of just theory? Great! Stop by and see us at the Brno Exhibition Centre (BVV).
