It is well known that there are different book on demand providers. With some of them you have to pay an entry fee. Others, like Lulu, do not, but then the commission of the provider is a little higher.
Now there are also providers where you can have card games or parlour games produced in very small editions (from 1 piece). Do any of you know such a company where you can place your game, just like on Lulu, and have it created and delivered on demand - i.e. game on demand instead of book on demand?

I want to turn my colouring books into apps. Found many places that do it, but I need something easier, with a tiny learning curve.

Benziger You are so talented to make your own games. Is this helpful?
"There are also independent portals collecting interesting games like HTML5Games.com, GameArter.com, MarketJS.com, GameFlare, GameDistribution.com or Poki where you can send your game in and it will get some natural promotion because of the big traffic those sites attract. Some of these take your files and host them on their server, whereas others only link to your website or embed your game on their site. Such exposure may just provide promotion for your game, or if you have adverts shown beside your game (or other money making options) it may also provide monetization."

have card games or parlour games produced in Thank you for all this answers. I am just talking about card games and parlour games - you know that one you played in old times, made with strong paper or card at home or with your grand mother. Like Halma, Monopoly, Nine men's morris, Ludo (in the UK) or Parcheesi (in the States).
So, I cannot get you advise for computer games. For that, you may try LiveCode (formerly Revolution, formerly HyperCard - the community version is for free). Some help to start is here. It's easy, as the programming language is every day english, but it's still a difference between creating a small app and develop a game. For help, there is a strong community.

Both have a shop, but as with Lulu, best will probabely be to promote them somwhere else.
My idea is to complement children's books with matching games. For example, a Memory (you may know it as Pairs, Concentration, Match Match, Match Up, Pelmanism, Shinkei-suijaku, Pexeso - thank you Wikipedia for this information) with pictures from the book or a dice game that re-enacts the story. Nothing is concrete yet.
