Top Hat Games

Mad Hatter

The top hat: a type of hat that had to be handmade by expert hatters and for this reason, at a time when craftwork was in decline, it came to be associated with the upper classes. After the great wars it became rarer and rarer in everyday clothing, but this distinctive accessory persisted for many years in the etiquette of international diplomacy and later became a staple for illusionists.

Dove l’umano spirito si purga

‘Where the human spirit is purged’. Our Supreme Poet’s Comedy continues among the sorrows of sin and the beatitudes of virtue. Join our Viatores, the "travelers", Dante and Virgil, as they ascend through the seven Terraces of Purgatory to reach Earthly Paradise, where the poet will arrive "pure and prepared to reach the stars". Dante Alighieri: Comedìa - Purgatorio™ is a charming semi-cooperative game for 3-6 players designed by Gabriele Mari and produced by Sir Chester Cobblepot. Top Hat Games is proud to publish 700 copies of a Special Limited Edition™ which will be ready in September 2022. Preorder now!

Bringing History to Life
