About this gig

Do you have a card game idea but need help turning it into a complete, strategic, and playable game?

I will design your card game, trading card game (TCG), or tabletop card game from concept to playtest-ready system. Whether you are developing a new idea, improving an existing prototype, or preparing for Kickstarter, crowdfunding, pitching, or production, I can help bring your vision to life.

My services include:

  • Core gameplay and win-condition design
  • Card mechanics, abilities, keywords, and effects
  • Deck-building, factions, classes, and progression
  • Resource, combat, economy, and interaction systems
  • Turn structure, player flow, and game balance
  • Card costs, synergies, counterplay, and replayability
  • Rules writing, card text, and game documentation
  • Playtest-ready frameworks and design recommendations

I work on strategy card games, TCG concepts, deck-builders, party card games, educational games, and indie tabletop projects.

My focus is on creating clear rules, meaningful decisions, engaging player interaction, balanced gameplay, and strong replay value.

Please contact me before ordering with your game concept, player count, target audience, existing materials, and desired deliverables.

Please inform the freelancer of any preferences or concerns regarding the use of AI tools in the completion and/or delivery of your order.
