InventRight teams with Ed Gartin and April Mitchell to launch Tabletop Game Design course

InventRight is launching an eight-week course in tabletop game design.

Taught by Paper Bag Creative’s Ed Gartin and inventRight coach and inventor April Mitchell, the course covers areas like research, ideation, playtesting, rules writing, sell sheets and sizzle videos.

Takeaways will include a sample spec design sheet, an editable presentation deck and a game creator’s guide.

“Over the course of my 22 years in the toy and game space, I have constantly tried to give back to an industry that has given me so much; this new course is just that,” said Ed Gartin.

“If you have been trying to get into inventing games that are sellable, licensable, and profitable, then this is the course for you.”

April Mitchell added: “This course helps to take the guessing game out of the game industry, teaching the necessary tools that can lead to fast tracking what seems to take others years to make it in the industry.”
