Peaks Of War

Type: Illustration, Print Design • Tools: Adobe Illustrator, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe InDesign

A strategic board game from Orek Games that appealed to all ages with friendly war-like visuals.

I worked with Orek Games team to develop the overall visual style for this board game and its packaging. I worked with them previously on Pizza Pirate. The team wanted a similar illustrative style that can be define as playful and kid friendly (Saturday morning cartoons). The game is somewhat similar to Risk in terms of building up your forces to defeat your opponents, however the ultimate objective is to explore the map and find the peaks and defeat your opponents.

The game's visual identity took over four months to develop because the game involved over 400 pieces including a box and booklet. I had full autonomy yet I received weekly feedback during the project duration. The illustrations are similar to what I've done previously. Yet I decide to include a shadow on game pieces to create greater depth for two-dimensional objects. I felt like we met our goal: create a board game that will reach a large audience of all ages.
