What is a meeple, anyway? A "meeple" is a little wooden (or plastic) pawn used in modern day board gaming to represent a player. It originated in the wonderful tile-placement game Carcassonne. "Meeple" is believed to be a combination of the words "my" and "people." Since then, meeples have been used in countless other board games and have become the unofficial symbol of modern day board gaming. Today, meeples are not only used to represent people (players), but animals, creatures, monsters, and much, much more. Perfect For The Following Situations! Deck Building: Quite the building partner when it comes to deck building situations such as building a backyard deck, building a rooftop deck, and playing Dominion. Worker Placement: Fantastic for taking your spot in worker placement life activities such as boring meetings, house chores and errands, and playing games like Agricola.

About the Startup Describe your product in 3 words. Gaming Home Decor How did you come up with the idea for this product? I want to sincerely express my appreciation to you and the hobby that has changed my life - board games! Is it weird to say that? Perhaps. But through all the friends I have met, all the colleagues I have connected with, all the strain my brain has endured at game night, and all the good times it all has brought, I feel that it has changed my life in a very positive way. So, I finally decided to create my own board game related project. I not only started my company Top Shelf Fun through my innate desire to be a part of this great hobby, but to bring something different to the tabletop/sofa! What makes your product special? I am fortunate that the Meepillow struck such a chord with the board game community. I had the right idea, at the right time (in an exploding hobby), and the right resources (such as Kickstarter) to execute. The board game market is thriving and there is a large black hole of gaming decor, so I was incredibly fortunate to see that. I can't wait to see what else people come up with! What has been the best part of your startup experience? Building a company from the ground up with the help of Kickstarter truly was a dream come true. I would not be here doing what I love if it wasn't for all the people that helped me bring them what they love. The board gaming community is the most supportive and knowledgeable group of people I've ever come to know. With their help I can accomplish anything. Stop by your friendly local game store today to see for yourself what this wonderful hobby has to offer!
