Yulu is a fairly new company in the marketplace which has made a name for itself with its games and a promise: Its products are always under $20. In a world of climbing prices, that’s notable to be sure.
At Toy Fair 2020 Yulu was showing off a lot of new games that will be coming out over the year. First up was Break the Board which will hit stores in the fall.
BREAK THE BOARD™ is the action-packed electronic game that takes a popular activity with kids – karate – and delivers the most iconic moment in the sport: breaking the wooden board!

Diamond Heist will have you racing against the police to escape with a stolen diamond. Just in our little demo time with the prototype, it was making me tense!
DIAMOND HEIST™ is the ultimate cooperative game where you work together to win . . . or you’ll get caught! An evil organization has stolen a precious diamond and has hidden it deep within their vault.
