I will design a professional board game and rulebook layout


About this gig
Bring your tabletop project to life with a professionally formatted, print-ready layout! A stellar game concept can easily be ruined by a cluttered rulebook, confusing typography, or unprofessional card templates. Whether you are launching an indie Kickstarter card game or prepping files for heavy-duty commercial manufacturers, I will design a structured layout that looks stunning and plays flawlessly.
What I Do For Your Project:
- Rulebook Type Design: Beautifully organized instruction manuals that make complex mechanics easy to learn.
- Custom Component Formatting: Layout assets for card frames, token icons, sheets, and game boards.
- File Optimization: High-resolution PDFs configured with correct bleeds, colors, and margins.
How It Works: You provide the final written rule text, asset artwork, or illustrations. I handle the professional graphic layout, alignment, and formatting. Minor layout adjustments are seamlessly covered in your included revisions, while structural text changes or expanding the component scope mid-project will require a milestone order adjustment.
Lets get your game ready for the retail shelf. Message me today to discuss your prototype layouts!

FAQ
Do you provide the illustrations and writing for the game?
No, this gig focuses entirely on visual formatting and professional layout design. You must provide the final written rule text, card text lists, and any custom character illustrations. I handle the typesetting, templates, and print-ready structural layout.
What file formats will I receive upon order completion?
You will receive high-resolution, print-ready PDFs set up with the correct safety margins and color profiles. If you order the Standard or Premium package, you will also receive the editable source files (such as Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, or Photoshop).
Can I change the written rules or layout size mid-project?
Minor visual adjustments are covered in your revisions. However, altering the core text entirely, changing the physical card size dimensions, or adding new components halfway through production changes the scope and requires a custom order milestone adjustment.
