What is Oka Luda ?
Oka Luda, a small board games publisher, 100% Perigourdine!
Oka Luda was formed in 2017 around a crush on the game Samsara – by Sylas – whose prototype was often running in our little local game club, Excitadel.
Samsara didn’t find any echo in the publishing world, so Christophe challenged us… to publish it!
A few months later, Oka Luda was well created, Chris, Mimi, Miguel and Sylas well engaged in the Kickstarter adventure. The campaign was a success, and Samsara was born!
A few months later, Kami fell into our arms, and that’s not to be refused… You can guess the rest, how to stop when the head and the heart are fulfilled?
A MORE RESPONSIBLE PRODUCTION
For several years, we have been adapting our production choices to reduce the environmental impact of our games. This means paying close attention to materials, inks, manufacturing processes, and the durability of components. While we do not follow a specific label, we always strive to come as close as possible, with the desire to create games that respect both players and the planet.
We aim to manufacture our games according to the following standards:
FSC certified raw materials:
Choice of FSC certified raw materials for the box, cards, boards and other cardboard elements. A guarantee that the materials come from responsibly managed forests.
Ready-to-use” solutions:
Choix de formats de cartes et de boîtes parmi les offres standard du fabricant. Grâce à cela, pas de fabrication d’outil ni de consommation d’énergie supplémentaire.
Inks and varnishes :
Utilisation d’encres et de vernis biodégradables, sans danger pour les enfants et utilisés même dans l’industrie alimentaire.
Adhesives :
These are biodegradable resin-based adhesives.
Chips, dice, markers :
Choice of FSC certified wood or cardboard components. No plastic !
Certified packaging:
A packaging technology using biodegradable cellophane and shrink film to replace the packaging techniques used before. Instead of Ziploc bags, we use cardboard boxes, and OEKO-TEX certified paper and cotton bags.
Biodegradable film:
The finished products are packed in FSC-certified boxes, which will be protected by a biodegradable film.
