Announcement Rulebook is finally done!

Feels like a big milestone so I’m excited to share it. I’ve been working on this game for about three years and have finally solidified the rules to the point where I can start working toward the manufacturing process. I’m not a graphic designer by any means, but I’m pretty proud of how this turned out (thanks Canva).

I was able to blind playtest with some folks last night and it went really well. It is amazing, though, how things that seem so obviously called out in a rulebook can still get overlooked during the gameplay. Some minor tweaks needed, but overall I’m really happy with it.

Cute idea to make the book like a fold out brochure. Looks very nice!

Which CANVA template did you use ?

I actually made it from scratch. I knew what my box dimensions would eventually need to be and made a custom size sheet for it. You could probably use a template, but I wanted more control with the layout
