Background
Learn by Playing was a class group project. The key objective of the Learn by Playing project is to create a game board with the topic "Tax Attack". The design team is responsible for content research and all visual components to final game mock-up. The goal is to educate the audience through playing the game.
Group members: Anastasiya Brailko, Diana Barrera, Liam Bolinger, Sophia Alcaraz
Role: Create and design the game pieces and the game box. The game pieces were illustrated by Sophia and I used Rhino to recreate them in 3D form. They took a little over an hour to 3D print. The game pieces are no more than 20 mm in circumference. I prepped and hand painted them with acrylic paint. I crafted the game box out of cardboard and covered the box with a thick poster paper print of the game logo and game design elements which were illustrated by Sophia as well.
Dimensions: Box 10 1/4 x 10 1/4 x 2 5/8 in., Game Pieces 20 mm
