To expand on the popularity of this [family-friendly board game](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/innovative-game-collection), Gamewright launched an expanded deluxe edition called Sushi Go Party! which boasts more ways that players can customize their gameplay experience by choosing menu items "à la carte." The game for two to eight players include a main game board, more than 20 menu tiles and 180 cards, making for a fun and fast-paced game for kids ages eight and up that reinforces skills like strategic thinking and visual differentiation. At the 2017 UK Games Expo, Gamewright's Sushi Go Party! was awarded the title of Best Family Game. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.1/10 - Popularity: 8% | Activity: 17% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Life-Stages](https://www.trendhunter.com/life-stages) > [Youth](https://www.trendhunter.com/youth) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Customizable Board Games:** Developing board games with customizable gameplay experiences gives players more control over their gaming experience and adds a new level of engagement. - **Fast-paced Card Games:** Creating card games that require quick thinking and decision-making taps into the growing demand for fast-paced and dynamic gaming experiences. - **Family-friendly Gaming:** Designing games that are enjoyable for players of all ages promotes family bonding and encourages multi-generational participation in gaming activities. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Board Game Industry:** The board game industry can leverage the trend of customizable gameplay to create innovative and engaging experiences that appeal to a wide range of players. - **Card Game Industry:** The card game industry can capitalize on the demand for fast-paced gameplay by developing card games that offer exciting and quick decision-making moments. - **Toy Industry:** The toy industry can tap into the trend of family-friendly gaming by creating board games and card games that are accessible and enjoyable for players of all ages. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Card-Matching Foodie Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/themed-card-game.md) - [Super-Simple Strategy Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/power-hungry-pets.md) - [Pirate Bento Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luffys-bento-panic.md) - [Paper-Made Portable Board Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-poppu.md) - [Chaotic Cat-Themed Board Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/exploding-kittens-the-board-game.md) - [Fast-Paced Challenge Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pop-off.md) - [Strategic Swine Board Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/silly-strategy-board-game.md) - [Flip-and-Stick Party Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chicken-vs-hotdog.md) - [Culinary Dice Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spam-yahtzee.md)
