The Game Crafter Explained: How to Make Your Own Professional-Quality Card Game or Board Game

Have you ever had an idea for a card game or board game but weren't sure how to make that dream a reality? Good news! There's an incredible new print-on-demand game creation service called The Game Crafter! I recently created my first official card game (Triumvirate) using The Game Crafter's website and I am thrilled with the results. The quality of everything from the web interface, the feel and print of the cards, to the packaging--it's all top-notch. In this video, I'm going to give you a quick overview of how The Game Crafter works so you can get started with making your own game right away. You can even make a card game or board game based on your self-published book to expand the reach of your story "franchise."

Later in the video, I'll share a little bit about how bleed works in print and the difference between art with bleed and art without bleed.

11:19 "Safe zone" or "Safety line" is the proper term for the blue-dashed line--sorry it was late afternoon and I couldn't recall it when recording! "Trim line" is the lighter red line, which is where the card will be cut/trimmed. The "bleed" is the darker red area that spills at the edges of the art.

I'll also share how much I make in royalties off each game sold!

NOTE: You will need some design skills and/or software to create all the files for your game, but they provide pretty much everything else.
