Why Game Tribe

Generic design tools weren't made for die-cuts.

The usual way

  • Hand-placing hundreds of cards in Photoshop or InDesign
  • Hunting for each factory's template, then redoing the work for the next quote
  • Files rejected for bleed, RGB colour or low resolution, weeks before launch
  • Rulebook and card text quietly drifting out of sync

With Game Tribe

  • Design one frame, generate the whole deck from a spreadsheet
  • Switch manufacturer templates without rebuilding anything
  • Automatic print checks before a single file leaves your desk
  • Rules and components linked, so a change updates everywhere

How it works

From prototype to production in three steps.

Design

Start from a component template, drop in your art and link your card data.

Check

Pick materials and let the print check catch bleed, colour and resolution issues.

Export

Download factory-ready files, or send them straight to a manufacturer for a quote.
