Games & Puzzles — where card 4,000 still matches card 1
If the red on card 4,000 doesn't match card 1, the deck fails. Color held consistent across the full run and every reorder — measured inline against the same G7-calibrated proof every time.
Why Sinso for Games & Puzzles
Game illustration typically has exactly the characteristics ECG is built for: vivid background fills, detailed character art, and side-by-side components that must match across a full print run. 7-color ECG on a Heidelberg Speedmaster XL 75 adds Orange, Green, and Violet to the CMYK base — recovering the saturated colors that standard CMYK shifts or flattens. G7 Master Printer calibration means the approved proof is what gets replicated on every reorder.
Typical projects
- Card Games & TCGs — Color-matched decks and trading card game sets where illustration fidelity and color consistency across the full print run matter. Reorders hold the same ICC profile.
- Board Game Components — Game boards, tiles, rulebooks, and inserts for illustration-heavy games where the visual design is part of the play experience.
- Puzzle Boxes — Standard puzzle lines where box art must reproduce the source illustration accurately. See also: Artist & Collector Editions for artist-collaboration and gallery-licensed puzzle editions.
- RPG & Supplement Books — Short-run rulebooks, sourcebooks, and game supplements with color-critical illustration spreads.
