There's now a set of games that have been created based on the animated series IYANU , inspired by Lion Forge Entertainment’s hit animated series on Cartoon Network and HBO Max.

Resurrection Games has opened pre-orders for a new tabletop collection inspired by the world of Iyanu. It is a great fit for holiday roundups, fandom-forward gift guides, and lists highlighting multicultural storytelling.
Pre-Order Link: https://preorder.
The collection includes three titles designed for kids, families, and fans of the series, each bringing Iyanu’s Nigerian-inspired mythology to life through immersive gameplay and bold art.
Iyanu: Mark of the Chosen
A fast, push-your-luck card game where players draw from the Yoruba deck to tap into divine powers. Priced at $21.95.
Iyanu: Crossroads
A memory tile game for young players, recently named a 2025 Best Geeky Gift in The PopInsider’s Games and Puzzle category. Priced at $26.50.
Yorubaland: Wild Terrain
A family strategy game where teams compete in a “Tiger Tag” style chase across a modular landscape. Priced at $48.50.
All three titles are based on the graphic novel Iyanu: Child of Wonder by Roye Okupe and the animated adaptation produced by Lion Forge Entertainment, the award-winning studio behind Hair Love.
Games ship in December, making the collection a versatile addition to any holiday gift guide. If you are working on gift guide coverage or would like assets, samples, or team interviews, I am happy to help.
