Get Creative: Design Process of Our Board Games

Have you ever wondered about the intricate and creative process behind designing board games? At Generational Jank, we take pride in crafting unique and engaging games that bring families together for hours of fun and laughter. In this blog post, we will delve into the design process of our board games and give you a glimpse behind the scenes.

The first step in creating a new board game is coming up with a concept. This can be inspired by anything from a childhood memory to a popular theme in pop culture. Once we have a solid concept in mind, the next step is to brainstorm game mechanics and rules that will bring that concept to life. This stage is crucial in ensuring that the game is not only entertaining but also challenging and engaging for players of all ages. After finalizing the game mechanics, our team of designers gets to work on the visual aspects of the game. This includes creating unique artwork for the game board, cards, and tokens that will immerse players in the game's world. We pay close attention to detail and aim to create a visually stunning game that will capture the imagination of our players. Once the artwork is complete, we move on to playtesting. This stage is where we gather feedback from a diverse group of playtesters to identify any potential issues with the game mechanics or rules. This feedback is invaluable in helping us refine and improve the game before it goes into production. Finally, once the game has been playtested and perfected, we move on to the production phase. This involves working with manufacturers to produce high-quality components for the game, from the game board to the packaging. We also focus on creating a memorable unboxing experience for our customers, as we believe that the presentation of the game is just as important as the gameplay itself. In conclusion, the design process of our board games at Generational Jank is a labor of love that involves creativity, attention to detail, and a passion for bringing families together. We hope this behind-the-scenes look has given you a better understanding of the hard work and dedication that goes into creating the games that we are proud to share with you. Thank you for being a part of our journey.
