If you are looking for MonsterTiles.com, then you are at the right place. Ocho Games is the proud owner and manufacturer of the Monster Tiles line of products.
Monster Tiles are high-quality gaming tokens designed to be used in many popular D20™ based RPG games.
With full-color art from professional artists, Monster Tiles strive to give a pictoral representation closely matching the descriptions of the monsters you use in your games. They help your players with visualizing just how mean looking those creatures really are.
The tiles in Series 1 feature great art for many popular monsters from the Monster Manuals for Dungeons and Dragons™ by Wizard's of the Coast, found in the SRD.
Made of ceramic and printed in full-color, Monster Tiles are designed to be great to look at, but tough enough to withstand gameplay the way we all know gameplay goes. Falling into the chip dip notwithstanding, these little guys will last you for years of gaming fun.

New Package Deals! New Products! New Pricing! Exclamation Points! |
Brad |
Happy Friday everyone! And what a happy Friday it is. I'm here to tell everyone that we now have up on the product page our two very popular new sets that were released at Gen Con this year - Treasure and Furniture Accessory sets.
We have also made our largest revision in pricing to date. Through some good fortune, and increased efficiency in our manufacturing, we have been able to lower the MSRP of the tokens to $0.50 for 1" and $1.25 for 2"!
The third big change around here is the addition of our Package Deals on the product page. These sets offer pre-configured packages of tokens that make choosing an encounter for your party easy. Not to mention that when you
purchase tokens in the sets, you are getting 20% off our new low MSRPs.
That's it for tonight. Please check out the product pages for all of these great new changes!

New Products! New Pricing! |
Brad |
At Gen Con we released 2 brand new sets of tokens. One was our Furniture Accessory set which includes tokens for things like beds, dressers, desks, chairs, and tables.
The other set was our Treasure Accessory set which includes tokens for piles of treasure, chests, weapon racks, armor racks and the like. Look for both of these new sets to be available
for purchase here on the website sometime this week.
The other big change sweeping through the site is our pricing. Based on the success of the product, some refining of our manufacturing process and the quantity at which we can make the tiles,
we will be lowering the per token unit cost on both the 1" and 2" tiles. Also, expect to see several pre-made package deals that will offer even greater discounts off the newly reduced MSRP of
the tokens. All of these items should also be appearing on our website sometime this week as well.

Gen Con was Awesome! |
Brad |
We're back from Gen Con and it was just awesome!
This was our first year for exhibiting at Gen Con, and for me, only my second year there at all. I have to say I just love that convention. It's such a cool environment
and atmosphere.
We wanted to say thanks to everyone who came by the booth and checked out the product and gave us suggestions and new ideas. We really appreciated all the great positive
comments we receieved about the Monster Tiles product. Our mounts were so popular we sold out of them on FRIDAY! The two new accessory sets we came out with - Treasure and Furniture -
turned out to be big hits as well. We were very pleased with how folks liked them. Working with Gen Con this year, we also ran a fairly large promotion where we gave away about 525
limited edition Gen Con exclusive 8-piece token packs. These were distributed to GMs as part of the Gen Con GM Promotions program. This was a big hit and probably we will do something
similar to this again next year.
Thanks again to all of our customers for making this a fantastic Gen Con debut for us!

We're back! |
Brad |
Well, we got back from Origins a week ago today and we had a blast!
This was our very first convention appearance and it was quite a memorable experience. We really enjoyed getting to meet
lots of nice people and talk to so many people who were interested in our product. Monster Tiles were a hit with
more folks than we could have imagined. So many, in fact, that we WON an Origins New Product Release Award for the product
released during the convention and voted on by the convention attendees. We won the award for our excellent line of NPC tokens
featuring the fantastic art of Larry Elmore, colored by the artist (V Shane) who did the work on our Monster Tiles Series 1 and 2 tokens.
We were VERY excited to win this award and want to say THANK YOU to all those who voted for us. It's hard to be a small fish in a big pond sometimes, and we really
appreciate the support from all of the people that met us throughout the weekend and took the time to checkout our Monster Tiles products.
Now, it's time for us to get ready for Gen Con. I'm hoping that I can make a few additions to the website between now and then, but of course we will
be quite busy with preparing for the "Best Four Days in Gaming". Please come and see us if you're going to be there. We'll be in booth 740. We're going to
be releasing a brand new set of tokens at the show that many people are excited about. They will be a set of tokens to represent many items you might
place on your maps (campfires, tents, barrels, sacks, piles of gold, piles of treasure, chests, statues, bookshelves, chairs, tables, and many more). Make
sure to stop by and pick up a set!

New! New! New! |
Brad |
There's lots of new stuff going on around here.
First, we have a new website. It's been redesigned, and is being prepared to be greatly enhanced. We are doing a little at a time, but prepare to see more and more features availble on our site soon.
Next, and more importantly, we are releasing our Series 2 of monsters at Origins this week. As well as series 2 monsters, we are also releasing a NPC set
of tokens featuring art from Larry Elmore (and they look fantastic). Another great release coming out at Origins is a set of horses to be used as mounts.
Check out these new products here.
