Why did Mayday Games Create Our Own Bag?

There are many great board game bags on the market, but we wanted to create a bag that was a step above the rest. This bag is totally unique and was designed by board game players and for board game players.

• Mayday Games is a company built by board game enthusiasts. We understand the unique needs of gamers and therefore designed the bag with you in mind. 
• We want you to prepared for any gaming location you visit. Gaming venues can include game nights at home, out with friends, hanging out with your local guild, at your local game store or café, or hitting up gaming conventions and tournaments. The quality and protection found in every bag will make traveling ideal. 
• Board games come in all sizes. The bag was designed to fit the largest of games (such as Twilight Imperium, Gloomhaven, Frosthaven, Western Legends Big Box and others). We also made sure it fit your games where multiple boxes are needed such as Dominion, Nemesis, Zombicide, Arkham Horror)
• The best games also require multiple components. The Mayday Ultimate Game Night Bag has loads of pockets to make sure the various combinations of boards, cards, miniatures, tiles, dice, tokens, coins, and other components are kept safe.

We are committed to providing superior bags at a reasonable price. We have been producing games and accessories in China since 2008. Our CEO lived in China for 6 years and still spends a large portion of the year in China to source our games and accessories directly with the factory, cutting out the middle man and ensuring top quality.  

What was the Design Process?

Our primary goals were:

#1: ULTIMATE STRENGTH.  We engineered this bag with the PRIMARY goal of being STRONG, so strong that nobody will ever have a problem in the normal use of the bag. We designed it to hold 75 lbs (34 kg) without sustaining damage. The factory engineers tested it on their end and then we REALLY tested it in every way we could imagine to reveal any flaws. We eventually filled the bag FULL of heavy card sleeves to finally break just the outer zipper, but the bag itself held up amazingly!  Watch the videos HERE. (full video HERE)

So where did the bag fail?  It never ripped or pulled through the seams through all our tests. We finally got it to fail with boxes of sleeves pulling straight down on the zipper, which is not the way the bag would ever be carried. The side zipper pulled apart due to the stress of the weight on one side.

We were able to unzip the bag open and re-close it with no permanent damage, just temporarily split it. We continued using this prototype bag for more than a year with no further damage. We still decided to upgrade the zipper at that spot for our final product.

#2: ROOMY FOR LARGE GAMES. We set out to have the bag hold Twilight Imperium 4.  After playing War Room we thought about redoing the bag again, but we had to draw the line somewhere. Sorry, War Room... no "room" for you!

#3: EASY CARRYING.  Mayday produces a lot of card sleeves and those extra sleeves and premium add-ons to games add weight!  We've packed the bag with up to 40 pounds of games, but it isn't easy to carry that much weight over long distances, so, we specifically designed the bag to handle extreme weight with ease. Check out these options.

#4: GAME PROTECTION. Our experience with needing to protect 15+ pound crokinole boards means we understand just how much padding/protection a bag needs to provide to protect hundreds of dollars in games.  We use a thick, soft-foam padding on all sides, the walls, top, bottom, and even outside flap. We also include an interior divider that you can use between boxes to keep heavier games from crushing lighter weight ones. The divider is also perfect for holding games in place if you are carrying less than a full bag. It is also perfectly adjustable thanks to the Velcro material along the interior of the bag.

Final Features

We took over 2 years developing this bag to ensure that it ended up being exactly what we wanted. We took it to game nights, conventions, and focus groups. We polled users of other bags about what their favorite features were, what they would change, and what they HAD TO HAVE in their ideal game bag. Over this time, we received from the factory quite a few different iterations of the bag. Finally, we decided that it's time to bring it to market.
