Background

"Castle Fight" is a personal project I developed as an engaging abstract strategy tabletop game. With a medieval theme, the game draws inspiration from classic titles like chess and checkers. I not only designed the gameplay but also built a complete brand around it, including a prototype, packaging, a website, and a promotional video. The project also involved illustrating the characters and settings, and playtesting to ensure a smooth gaming experience.

The primary objective of was to create a fun and challenging game that appeals to strategy enthusiasts. Beyond the physical game, I aim to enhance its appeal by developing a virtual version in Unreal Engine. This will expand the game’s reach and offer players an immersive experience.The project showcases my multidisciplinary skills in graphic design, game design, web design, and illustration through the development of the game and its branding.
