Our Story
Mike Chouinard of Orlando, Florida, dreamt of creating a game that would be unlike anything else...it would rival games like chess, Monopoly®, checkers and Risk. Mike designed an abstract strategic concept, placed it on a round board with two battle fronts set in outer space, continuing to play test and tweak the game for a few years until he perfected it.
In 2015, along with his partner Christine Stickney, Mike completed the design of and self-published his first game, Planetary Strike. They launched their game company, Claim To Fame Games, with the mission to create high-quality, family friendly games that are manufactured in the U.S.A.
Claim To Fame Games supports pet adoption and breed rescue in memory of their first pug, Rocky…the pug flying the airplane in their logo. Mike and Christine donate a portion of the proceeds to PugRescueofFlorida.org and continue to foster and volunteer for Pug Rescue of Florida. Here are two national databases of pets available for adoption: petfinder.com and adoptapet.com.
We Hope You Enjoy Playing Planetary Strike as much as we Enjoyed Creating it. Mike & Christine
