Ice Makes Games began as the creative vision of founder Jeffrey CCH in Hong Kong, rooted in the belief that tabletop games should be more than mechanics on a page, they should be lived experiences that spark connection, immersion, and memorable moments around the table. 

From our earliest designs, we’ve focused on how gameplay makes people feel and think, crafting titles where meaningful choices and engaging interaction bring players together. Over time, our work has evolved through community support and shared play, but the heart of Ice Makes Games remains the same: to create games that people remember, talk about, and want to share with others long after the session ends.

OUR STORY

 

Ice Makes Games began as the creative vision of founder Jeffrey CCH in Hong Kong, rooted in the belief that tabletop games should be more than mechanics on a page, they should be lived experiences that spark connection, immersion, and memorable moments around the table. From the very beginning, Ice Makes Games has stayed true to one idea: Making games that stay with you; Games that people talk about, enjoy and return to. 

Our Vision: Shaping Experiences Into Play

Our Mission: To bring people together through meaningful play and shared experiences

This reflects what we do today and ties directly to our track record of creating games that foster connection; whether through narrative depth, engaging interaction, or well-crafted mechanics, while remaining broad and inclusive of all the ways people enjoy tabletop gaming.




 

Our Vision: Shaping Experiences Into Play

We aspire to redefine how people experience tabletop gaming, not just as mechanics and rules, but as moments of connection, immersion, and shared memories that stay with players long after the session ends.

DESIGNER'S STORY

I'm Jeffrey CCH, the founder and lead designer of Ice Makes Games, based in Hong Kong. For me, design is about more than just mechanics—it's about people. I think a lot about how players feel and what's going through their minds as the game unfolds. Every decision at the table is a chance to create something meaningful, spark a little emotion, or bring people together in a way that sticks around after the game is over.
 

I don't usually start with "What does this rule do?" Instead, I ask myself: "What will this moment mean to the players?" That question shapes everything I make. I want my games to not just play well, but to resonate—to spark conversation, laughter, and maybe a moment for people to remember. To me, a great game is one that leaves you with a story you actually want to tell someone else.

 

I believe that everyone, at heart, loves to play. My goal is to create games that invite people to step into that feeling—and truly experience it.

Jeffrey CCH is the founder and lead designer of Ice Makes Games, based in Hong Kong. His creative approach goes beyond mechanics, he designs with people in mind, focusing on how players feel and think as the game unfolds. For Jeffrey, every choice on the table is an opportunity to create meaning, spark emotion, and invite players into shared experiences that continue long after the game ends.

Rather than asking “What does this rule do?”, he asks “What will this moment mean to the players?” This perspective shows in every title he crafts: games that don’t just play well but resonate, prompting conversation, reflection, and laughter around the table. To Jeffrey, a truly successful game is one that leaves players with memories, insights, and stories they’re excited to share with others, experiences that become part of the fabric of play itself.
