Gone Cardboard: Dream Factory, Coming from Filosofia

Reiner Knizia’s Traumfabrik is returning to print once again in a new edition from Canadian publisher Filosofia. Dream Factory will follow the release of Chinatown and Genoa, two other high-rated games that Filosofia revised and brought back to the shelves as part of its V.I.P. collection.

In Dream Factory, players are producers who are trying to complete several movies by hiring directors, actors, musicians, special effects gurus, and other personnel required by the script, but you’re not the only producer in town, so you’ll have to ante up if you want to produce the movies with the most stars. As with Hollywood Blockbuster, an English-language version of Traumfabrik released in 2007 by Uberplay, Dream Factory will feature caricatures of modern movie stars rather than the real life stars of decades past who were included in the original game. Blame the Screen Actors Guild, if you must.

Dream Factory is scheduled to be released in French in May 2009. An English-language version is forthcoming by the end of 2009, but for now Filosofia has declined to release the name of the publishing partner who will be handling that title. This game has been added to Gone Cardboard.
