Game Objectives
Race to Your Rocket is a game co-created with Little Spark Games for children aged 7–11 to encourage communication, build friendships, and spark meaningful connection.
My Role
I designed and developed the Race to Your Rocket card game from concept through to production, leading every aspect of the creative process. This included the board, cards, box, characters, animations, rules, and game mechanics, while ensuring the experience was engaging, educational, and intuitive to play. I organised and facilitated local playtesting sessions to refine the game, created the website, marketing assets, and event posters to support its launch, and worked closely with the production company to prepare the game for manufacture.
Game Outcome
We want to appeal to Teachers, Teaching Assistants, SENCO, ELSAs, and parents. We envisage this game being a resource they can use quickly and easily that also teaches essential soft-skills like communication that tend to be forgotten about.
We Made It!
Since it’s original ideation, this game has evolved a lot and is now in card game format, instead of board game. The brand however, has carried on and will continue to grow as companion games are developed.
