The Design

About Client Vs Designers Jogo de Tabuleiro

Client Vs Designers é um jogo de tabuleiro para dois jogadores, inspirado na adversidade entre clientes e designers. O design baseia-se no jogo tradicional Xadrez dos Animais e adapta a sua estrutura num formato lúdico. Os principais cargos de cada lado são ilustrados e recebem diferentes hierarquias, para que os dois jogadores possam lutar e dominar-se mutuamente. Os motivos de frustração mais comuns de cada lado funcionam como armadilhas. As peças do jogo são de acrílico transparente cortado à forma e serigrafado com ilustrações. O tabuleiro é impresso com cores metálicas sobre um papel que evoca o jogo original.

Tags: clientvsdesigner, boardgame, traps, fun, characterillustration, relationship, adversity
Production Technology: The chess pieces use transparent acrylic cut into shape and screenprint the illustration on top. The board game paper uses similar paper that mimics the original animal chess paper for an authentic look. The graphic was printed with Pantone metallic colors.
Design Challenge: Deciding to create multiple character illustration for players to choose and select for the specific job position instead of a fixed look. This creates an extra step before playing the game.
Research: The idea originates through the inspiration of Animal Chess. We then take the essential elements from that game and translate it into relevant idea for Client vs Designers.
Inspiration: The concept originated from the game Animal Chest and it is a playful attempt to illustrate that every great relationship starts from a place of adversity. The inspiration comes from some of the key points that might frustrate each side to act as a "trap". The key job positions of each side are chosen and given different rankings to begin the battle and overpower each other.
Project Duration: The project started in October 2023 in Hong Kong and finished in December 2023.
Operation Flow: This is a board game for 2 people
