History edit

Z-Man Games was primarily formed to bring the collectible card game Shadowfist back into publication.[1][2]

In 2011, Sophie Gravel, owner of Quebec-based publisher/distributor Filosofia, bought Z-Man Games,[3] creating F2Z Entertainment. Shlasinger left Z-Man Games in January 2016. In 2016, F2Z Entertainment was acquired by Asmodee.[4]
