Where it came from
Daybreak is a cooperative board game designed by Matt Leacock and Matteo Menapace, released in 2023. It was created with the specific goal of exploring climate solutions through game mechanics, tasking players with building resilient systems to decarbonize the global economy. The project emerged from a desire to combine the approachable, strategic style of modern hobby games with a rigorous, scientifically grounded simulation of real-world climate policy and environmental activism.
The game is noted for its distinct visual identity, featuring clean, modern, and accessible graphic design that prioritizes information clarity for a complex systemic simulation. It was well-received upon its release for successfully balancing the high stakes of its subject matter with engaging, non-punitive gameplay. By focusing on collective problem-solving rather than competition, it occupies a unique space in the modern tabletop landscape as a design-forward educational tool that resists cynicism.
