FAQ
What stage does my game need to be in for this session?
Any stage! We can brainstorm core mechanics from a blank slate or audit a fully play tested prototype before print manufacturing.
What platform do we use for the call?
Calls are hosted via Fiverr's video call system or direct meeting link upon booking confirmation.
Can we review my physical prototype or digital setup (Tabletop Simulator/Tabletopia) during the call?
Yes! You can screen share your digital prototypes on Tabletop Simulator, Figma, or Canva, or show your physical board and cards on camera so we can test turn flows in real-time.
Will you sign an NDA (Non-Disclosure Agreement) before our session?
Absolutely. Your intellectual property and game design are 100% safe. If you have an NDA draft, feel free to send it over before our call, or I can provide a standard template upon request.
What if I only have a rough idea and no written rules yet?
That is completely fine. We can use the 60 minute session as a structured brainstorming workshop to establish your core game loops, player roles, win conditions, and basic card structures from scratch.
