Next up, we chat with Rafał Szyma – head of art & graphic design at Portal Games, based in Upper Silesia, Poland.

Their speciality is intricate storytelling, narrative driven boardgames.

Portal was showcasing three big titles at Spiel’21.

“Dune House Secrets” is part of the Dune franchise and takes up where Denis Villeneuve’s 2021 movie ends.
