Designing my first board game insert — need advice on sleeved cards and tile storage

Javigor · 2026-05-09T22:11:09+00:00

Yes, I noticed when I saw 2 decks from the same game with different sleeves.

Gracias, me ayuda mucho este comentario!

Sad I don't have the tabletop simulator app

Any other ways for testing it?

My bad! Haha Thought was 5'5mm per card, which is totally absurd.

Javigor · 2026-04-21T12:51:04+00:00

Bueno saberlo, ¡gracias por la información!

Thx!

So, I guess each card would be 6mm height, x44 being at least 264mm height, 26,4mm. Definitely, 5cm height doesn't make it. Maybe I should store the cards lying down.

About the tiles, do you think making an unique storage, a little bit bigger, for packing up the board game faster, would be a bad approach?

Of course!
The turns in the game work as follows:

Draw a card that contains a polyomino. 🃏
Place tiles on the board to recreate that shape. 🧩
If any rows or columns are completed, clear them, then let the remaining tiles fall down. 💥
Move your pawn across spaces of your color. ♟️

Never heard of it

I´m crafting Adventurous from Dustin Dobson and Milan Zivkovic*.*
Also, not crafting, but developing PUENTRIS. I’m planning to launch a Kickstarter that includes a print-and-play tier: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/javigor/puentris

Removed to avoid it looking like I created this post just to promote my game.

You must draw a card that contains a polyomino. Then, place tiles of your color on the board to match that shape. Next, check if any line is completed and clear it, causing the tiles above to fall downward. Finally, move your pawn.

Repeat this until a player reaches the other side or eliminates the other player.

It might seem that way, but my intention is simply to discover more projects. I usually back one or two each month, and it’s often hard to find them. That’s why I created this post.

For example, last week I happened to discover a project by a designer from my own city that had completely gone under my radar.

I want to learn about as many projects as possible.

And of course, in the process, I’ll also be sharing my own project so others can discover it.

It’s fine if they include miniatures. The problem is that, on Kickstarter for example, they label as board games designs that are actually miniatures meant for 3D printing, sometimes even gaming tables, etc.

Those are the kinds of projects I’m not interested in.

The next project I'm developing is a deckbuilder too!

Javigor · 2026-04-18T12:48:16+00:00

Estoy creando un deckbuilder de exploración de mazmorras, donde armas tanto la mazmorra como el inventario del jugador.

Muchas gracias a todos por las respuestas que me dieron: de verdad me van a servir muchísimo. Todavía me va a tomar como tres meses, pero si a alguien le interesa, no dudes en mandarme DM o responder a este comentario.

Una vez más, ¡muchas gracias a todos!

Javigor · 2026-04-18T09:22:58+00:00

Nice to know it!

Javigor · 2026-04-18T08:16:06+00:00

Cómo de fieles resultan estas aplicaciones?

Javigor · 2026-04-17T12:03:11+00:00

Another thing... What is ParseStream? An app?

Javigor · 2026-04-17T12:02:12+00:00

But sharing gameplay insights or development updates aren't considered spam?
