About Us

It all started in 2020. Inspired by chickens at home making it their daily mission to escape the coop, Marcus Davidson created a card game. After expanding on the idea with his dad, the first version was made on pieces of card and taken to school to play with friends. This was far from the first game Marcus had made. However, it had the potential many of the others hadn't. A University of Canterbury Summer Startup Programme provided the opportunity to further develop the game during summer 2022/23 and Catherine Davidson was enlisted as the artist. After 4 years of development Coop was released in December 2024!
