PARENTS OF REBELS

Young fam­i­ly of Antos and Nas­ta Yank­ouskiya from Hrod­na live by play­ing, as games have grad­u­al­ly grown into their dai­ly pas­time and sud­den­ly became work for them.

To pro­duce their first game Paus­tantsy (Rebels), they used the mon­ey from wed­ding presents. This is how the fam­i­ly busi­ness start­ed – a sto­ry of authored Belaru­sian cul­ture ori­ent­ed table games. The next sets were called Mova (Lan­guage), Has­padar Cmokau (The Mas­ter of Drag­ons) and Try Kity (Three Whales).

The Belaru­sian lan­guage and tra­di­tion­al cul­ture are part and par­cel of every­day life for Antos and Nas­ta. Like, for instance, they cel­e­brat­ed their wed­ding in hand-made folk suits.

Last year the fam­i­ly became true par­ents, with the new­born son Mikhas.

Next year, to cel­e­brate the anniver­sary of the 1863 — 1864 upris­ing head­ed by nation­al hero Kas­tus Kali­nous­ki, the fam­i­ly are plan­ning to reis­sue the game Paus­tantsy 2.0.
