I will design custom board game card game board game design tabletop tcg board game art


About this gig
I design card games, trading card games (TCGs), and tabletop card systems from the ground up, combining game mechanics, card balancing, rules, deck-building systems, and structured card layouts into games that are fun to play and easy to learn.
Whether you're creating an original card game, developing a TCG, refining an existing deck building system, or preparing a Kickstarter prototype, I turn your concept into a structured, playable game.
What I deliver:
- Game mechanics, turn structure and win conditions
- Resource systems, player interaction and progression
- Balanced card stats, abilities and effects
- TCG and deck building systems
- Card layout and design templates
- Rulebook structure and rules writing
- Playtesting feedback and balance adjustments
Ideal for TCGs, trading card games, deck building games, custom board game card sets, Kickstarter prototypes, party games and family card games.
I focus on creating clear, balanced and engaging mechanics that are practical for playtesting, pitching and future production.
Send me your game concept, theme or existing rules, and let's build a card game system ready for playtesting or production.

FAQ
Do you design the artwork/illustrations too?
I focus on game mechanics and card templates, not custom illustration. If you need art too, I can point you to how to combine this with an illustrator, or use placeholder art in your templates.
What if I don't have a full game idea yet, just a theme?
That's fine send me your theme or concept and I'll help build the mechanics around it.
Can you balance an existing card game I've already made?
Yes, send me your current rules/cards and I'll review and rebalance where needed.
What file formats will I get?
PDF for the mechanics doc and rulebook, plus PSD/AI/PNG for card templates depending on your package.
How many revisions do I get?
Basic gets 1, Standard gets 2, Premium gets 3. If we need more, we can discuss add-ons.
How long does delivery take?
3-7 days depending on the package see delivery time on each tier.
Can you help with Kickstarter card games specifically?
Yes, the Premium package is built for that full mechanics, cards, and rulebook outline ready for production.
What do you need from me to get started?
A short brief your game's theme, target audience, and any mechanics you already have in mind. The more detail, the better the first draft.
