The 8 categories of the glossary
The glossary is structured in 8 thematic mega-pages, each of which brings together the key terms of a technical field of custom-made board games. Click on a theme to access all definitions, usage examples and concrete cases from our workshop.
How this glossary is organized
This glossary was created to answer the concrete questions that our clients (HRD, Communication managers, school publishers, independent designers...) ask us about each quote. Each term is explained in its context of real use, with examples from our 7 years workshop (Bretagne, Angoulême and Toulouse) and more than 33 B2B client cases.
If a term is missing, Ask us And we'll add it.
Most viewed terms
Over the last 12 months, the most visited pages by B2B buyers are offset printing (rentability by quantity), hot foil stamping (premium effect), NFC tag (game connected), lamination (high end) and game mechanics (cadrerage des objectives pédagogiques) These five entries are sufficient to cover 80% of the technical questions asked during a first quote. If your project comes out of this framework (wood, fabric, metal, embedded electronics), do not hesitate to write to us for a targeted workshop opinion.
