Card tray and storage system for The Game

prusaprinters

<p>The Game (https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/173090/game) is a collaborative game, in which cards numbered 2 through 99 get placed in four discard piles in ascending or descending order until (hopefully) all cards are placed.&nbsp;</p><p>For some reason we were always getting confused over which piles go up and which piles go down when using the original prompt cards. So I came up with this card tray that makes it more obvious which piles go up or down. With a lid or a sleeve, it also acts as a storage system/travel box.&nbsp;</p><p>A version of this model designed for the competitive 2-player variant The Game: Face to Face can be found at <a href="https://www.printables.com/model/248000">https://www.printables.com/model/248000</a>.</p><p>From the game's entry on Boardgame Geek, there are obviously several versions of this game in circulation. This model was sized for cards 90 x 59 mm.&nbsp;</p><h5>Print instructions</h5><p>The 3mf for the card holder is configured for color swaps.&nbsp;</p><p>The lid comes in two versions, a standard single-color version and a two-color version. I have uploaded a 3mf file that is configured for manual filament swap, to create the two-color version of the lid. It requires manual filament swaps, starting with the base color, then the color for “The Game”. Note that when you slice it, Prusaslicer will generate a superfluous filament swap at the beginning, just re-feed the initial filament, or use a text editor to open the GCODE file and remove the line with the first occurrence of M600 from the GCODE.&nbsp;</p><p>Alternatively, I also provide a sleeve. It is sized with a larger clearance than the lid but can be a bit tight. You may want to scale the sleeve up a percent or two in your slicer. Print it with the opening up, rotate by 45% degrees or so to fit onto the steel sheet. I was using an 8 mm brim to stabilize it.</p><p>UPDATE 2/1/22: Added versions for sleeved cards. The lid extends to almost the whole size of the Mk3S print bed. Make sure you disable any skirt or brim to avoid a warning message.</p><p>UPDATE 8/22/21: Fixed the wrong start number for UP discard piles (oops, embarrassing).</p><p><strong>If you like what I'm doing…</strong><br><strong>&nbsp;</strong><br>…consider&nbsp;<a href="https://www.buymeacoffee.com/mix579">buying me a coffee</a>.<br><br><img src="https://media.prusaprinters.org/media/prints/69467/rich_content/51be8e2b-e636-4591-a248-63a50ce552e9/image.png#%7B%22uuid%22%3A%22eb691bae-eb13-49b7-b2f0-e249fd91e239%22%2C%22w%22%3A170%2C%22h%22%3A37%7D" alt="orange_img.webp"><br><br>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p>
