Zentrovert Games is a small indie board game publisher in Las Vegas, focusing on merging theme and mechanics into accessible, aesthetic gaming experiences that entertain while also fostering self improvement.

Our debut title, Nevermind The Distraction was designed in 2020 and released as a free downloadable print-and-play game to help people deal with the stress and uncertainties of the COVID-19 pandemic. A small but passionate group of print-and-play fans worldwide requested a full "retail" version of the game, and helped fund the Kickstarter campaign in 2023 for its first printing.
Zentrovert Games is owned and operated by A.J. Plank.

    A former health care design architect with a specialty in mental health care facilities, AJ left architecture to refocus on helping people rather than corporations. Still an idealist despite over a half-century of experience, he now spends most of his time bouncing between game design and trying to decide what he wants to be when he grows up.

    Both polymath and empty nester, in his free time AJ enjoys having more interests than he knows what to do with—board games, meditation, reading, the outdoors, broadening his eclectic DIY maker skillset—and is currently perpetuating a stereotype learning to play the handpan.
