The Brief
Create an effective board game, card game, puzzle, or 3D children's book to introduce a subject to children. This design should be for 5th to 8th graders. It must provide information for children.
A Social Deduction Trivia Game
I not only wanted to make an educational game, but one that the age group would be excited to play. Inspired by card games like Werewolf and the incredibly popular video game Among Us, Fact Checkers is a game where everyone reads true facts, but the reader can choose to try to decieve the other players to gain points.
Concept Sketches
I started by illustrating, and erasing, and then illustrating what I wanted the style of the game to look like. I wanted it to come off light hearted and hand drawn.
Finalized Artwork
I was happy with how the characters and colors looked together so I moved the files from procreate to Illustrator where I would vectorize them and refine them.
Mockups
To see how this would look as a real product, I put the branding on a virtual box, made cards and created an official rule book.
