§ 04 — OUR FAMILY STORY

WE BUILT A GAME. WE BUILT IT FOR OUR KIDS.

As parents in Alberta, we wanted more than just screen time. We wanted games that sparked real talk, built confidence, and helped our kids navigate the world with emotional intelligence. When we couldn't find exactly what we needed, we decided to create it ourselves. RaeBen Games is our way of sharing that journey with your family.

Educational games shouldn't feel like homework. They should feel like a discovery. We focus on real-world judgment and communication, turning everyday scenarios into opportunities for growth. Our first game, Now What?, is designed to help children build the skills they need to thrive, one card at a time.

“If we wouldn't play it with our own children, it doesn't make the cut. That is our promise.”

We are a husband-and-wife team dedicated to building thoughtful, honest tools for families. Every game we create is rooted in our belief that kids are capable of incredible things when given the right tools to express themselves. Join us as we launch our first project.
