I've been in a crafting mood for a few days now. One of the results of that were my recent adventures in book binding #2d6Dungeon, the other was finally figuring out a good way to create custom playing cards for print'n'play games.
I stumbled across #EscapeFromStation52 in one of my itch.io bundles and that was the trigger: Cards were printed one sided on a piece of 185gsm linen stock, sealed with fixative, folded and spray glued together, then cut. A bit thick but feel & shuffle great!
Then I decided that I needed a fitting version of the rules, so I created that. All 8 pages now are just on a long folded strip, both sides printed on.
I uploaded those to BGG too after getting a quick ok from the game author, but so far the file hasn't been published.
And finally, just now I finished a custom tuckbox matching the design, with the credits from the rules on the back as well.
Printed on heavy card stock and then cut, folded and glued together. Fits the cards plus the rules perfectly and now I'm enjoying playing this game even more 😊
I have it on my desk for quick work breaks (one play doesn't last longer than 10min), and it feels a bit like Nemesis Light 😅 I can recommend it if you are fine with sudden death 😬
@foosel This seems like it could also be a cool 3d printed case. I made one for Monopoly Deal that’s pretty great. So much so that a friend wanted one for their deck too!
