High & Low - Card Game Prototype Arrives from MeinSpiel! 
Testing Begins!

The moment we've been waiting for has arrived! 

Our prototype of High & Low, produced by the wonderful team at MeinSpiel , has landed! We ripped open the package with excitement, eager to get our hands on the physical manifestation of our card game.





First Impressions: A Splash of Color and Tactile Delight
We were immediately impressed with the vibrant colors and the satisfying feel of the cards. MeinSpiel has done a fantastic job capturing the visual aesthetic we envisioned. 






The cards have a lovely texture, making them a pleasure to shuffle and handle. The colors pop, bringing the artwork of High & Low - Card Game to life and adding a touch of visual flair to the gameplay.



The Box: A Work in Progress
However, like any prototype, there's always room for improvement. We noticed that the box, while sturdy, lacked a protective finish. This means it would be susceptible to dirt and wear and tear over time. 





This is valuable feedback that we will take into account for our final product.

Testing, Testing, 1, 2, 3...

Now for the fun part! With the prototype in hand, we're ready to put High & Low through its paces. We're incredibly excited to gather feedback from our friends and family, the real test subjects who will help us fine-tune the gameplay and ensure it's as engaging and enjoyable as possible.
Why Testing is Crucial:
  •  Gameplay Balance:
    We'll be observing how the game flows, identifying any potential imbalances or areas that need tweaking.
  • Clarity and Understanding:
    We'll be assessing how easy it is to learn and play the game, ensuring the rules are clear and concise.
  • Fun Factor:
    Most importantly, we'll be gauging the overall enjoyment level, making sure High & Low delivers a thrilling and satisfying experience.
  • Box Feedback:
    We will use the box as is for testing, but make sure to communicate the need for a finish on the final product.
MeinSpiel: A Valuable Partnership
We're grateful to MeinSpiel for their expertise and dedication in producing our prototype. Their commitment to quality is evident in the cards themselves, and we appreciate their willingness to work with us to refine the final product.

Join the Journey!

We'll be sharing updates on our testing progress and incorporating feedback as we move closer to the official launch of High & Low. Stay tuned for more insights into the development process and get ready to experience the excitement of High & Low! 

We are excited to see the feedback we get from our playtesters.

During the summer holiday program in 2017, card games were a huge hit. However, some of these games had names that are now considered offensive and politically incorrect. We quickly renamed these games in front of the children to "Hello" or "OK" or simply gave them new, invented names. One game that was particularly popular with the children was a mix of luck and strategy. The gameplay required foresight but also offered surprising moments of luck – the perfect balance! The children even developed their own rules for this game and combined it with other card games. This is how the first version of "High & Low" was born. Since the children were so enthusiastic, we quickly created our own cards with symbols and numbers in Word and printed them on thicker paper. The name "Hello" became "Hello Higher," an...
