My Board Game

For the past couple of weeks, I've been designing my board game, the cards and even the logo for my 'brand'. It's been a long process but a rewarding one. I decided to go to for a fun logo with lots of colours. Below you can see it:

I really like it, because it's fun, simple, colourful and effective. At first I though of a colourful puzzle piece, but it didn't go down well in Illustrator.

My board is a little different, however.
My board game itself is a bit less colourful, and I've tried to add a media twist to it by adding media-related pictures to the board itself: a camera, an Oscar, etc. I think this added some individuality to my board.

I did use a variety of colours for some of the other spaces, and when the cards are added to the board they will add even more colour.


The colours I used for my logo and board are pretty different. So, for instance, my logo is bright and colourful to attract people in, but also because it's a 'games company'. My board, however, had primary colours of shades of grey, with splashes of colour. this makes the game itself even grown-up and educational, which suits my older target audience.


My cards, to go on the board, I'm quite proud of. I used shapes like circles and rectangles, and added test inside. In the circle, I made the text loop around, with looks professional and pretty polished. I used the same colours, on both sides of the car, on my board so they'd match. You can see one side of my cards here.
