999 Games is a Dutch board game publishing company. In Belgium and the Netherlands it publishes mostly German-style board games such as The Settlers of Catan, El Grande and Carcassonne. The company also imports foreign games, such as Magic: the Gathering.
In recent years, 999 Games has moved away from gamers' games and turned more towards family, kids, or even party games – with Agricola being a popular exception.
