The Story Behind the Box
Parker Brothers started the way a lot of good things start: someone got bored and decided to do something about it. George Parker was sixteen years old in 1883 when he created his first card game in Salem, Massachusetts, convinced that games didn’t have to be preachy moral lessons dressed up as entertainment. They could just be fun. His brothers Charles and Edward eventually joined him, and what began at a kitchen table turned into something that would end up in millions of other people’s homes.
For over a century, we’ve been the company behind the games that families argue over, friendships get tested by, and rainy afternoons disappear into. Monopoly. Clue. Risk. Sorry! These aren’t just products we manufactured — they’re the reason someone’s uncle still won’t speak to their cousin after Thanksgiving 2007. We’ve always understood that the best games create stories, and those stories outlast the boxes they came in.
We’re not trying to revolutionize your leisure time or disrupt the entertainment industry. We make games. We’ve been making them since before your great-grandparents were born, and we’ve gotten pretty good at knowing what makes people want to sit down together, pick up some cards or roll some dice, and forget about everything else for a while. That’s been the whole point from day one, and we don’t see any reason to complicate it.
