Imaginhero is a turn-based battle card game, designed for kids and the parents, educators and therapists who work with them. It was created as a tool to help children develop healthy emotional responses to challenging situations. It’s designed to be an accessible and engaging way of helping kids face their fears, and develop healthy ways of dealing with pain using well-established and evidence-based approaches to improving mental health.
I was asked to create the design and art style for the game. Over the course of a year and a half 54 card designs were developed from Hero, Echo, Power and Trigger cards. In 2022 the project was successfully funded through Kickstarter. Visit the website below for more information.
