Mayfair Games is a publisher of board and roleplaying games in the US and UK. They also license German-style board games and publish them in English, most notably the Settlers of Catan series licensed from Kosmos.
Unlike Rio Grande Games they do not license the German visual components, and many players have expressed dissatisfaction with the artwork used in some Mayfair versions of the games.
They are also known to change some rules in their versions which has lead to problems for players.HistoryMayfair games was founded in the early 1980s by Darwin Bromley in Chicago.In 1993, Mayfair was sued by TSR, Inc., who argued that Mayfair's "Role Aids" line of game supplements, advertised as compatible with AD&D, violated their 1984 trademark agreement. While the court found that some of the line violated their trademark, the line as a whole did not violate the agreement, and Mayfair continued publishing the line until the rights were bought by TSR. In 1997, Mayfair was bought by Iron Crown Enterprises. In 2003, Mayfair started publishing games by daVinci Games, beginning with the popular card game Bang!. In 2005 Mayfair also began distributing all of the games published by Phalanx Games.
