Want to design a trait card for a future Doomlings expansion? 🤩 Enter the official Create-a-Card Competition! 🎨 🖌️⁠

Do you have the perfect idea for a new trait card? Now is your chance to see it in the game and win awesome prizes! The 1st place artist will receive a $150 Doomlings store credit and best of all...their design will be added into a future expansion! 2nd place will receive a $100 Doomlings store credit, and 3rd place will receive a $50 Doomlings store credit.⁠ But wait... there's more! The TOP 5 FINALISTS will all also receive a Mystery Holofoil signed by Justus Meyer. Submit your design from now until May 24! See rules and FAQs on how to enter below...

 

1. Create your trait card artwork - it can be either hand drawn or digital. We're good with either!⁠

2. Name your trait card. For example, the name must be either A) a trait name that’s scientific or silly (Opposable Thumbs, Tiny Little Melons); B) an animal or a plant to represent (Flying Squirrel, Helicopter Seeds); or C) a characteristic to represent (Musical, Two-Headed).⁠

3. Post it on Instagram, tag @Doomlings, and include one sentence on why you want to see it in the game.⁠

On May 24, the initial entry period for this contest will close. Then, 5 finalists will be picked by Team Doomlings. From May 24 to May 27 at 11:59pm PST fans will choose the winning card by voting for their favorite on Instagram! Follow our Instagram @Doomlings to vote.

The card designed must be a trait card, and it must have a name. For example, the name must be either A) a trait name that’s scientific or silly (Opposable Thumbs, Tiny Little Melons); B) an animal or a plant to represent (Flying Squirrel, Helicopter Seeds); or C) a characteristic to represent (Musical, Two-Headed).⁠

The winning artwork will be touched up by an official Doomlings artist and will change slightly for final production.

The effect & value of the card are subject to change.

There is no effective timeline for when the card will be released.

Plagiarism of any kind will not be tolerated. If we find your artwork or idea is stolen from another source, you will be disqualified. 

We strongly discourage the use of Ai programs (i.e. Midjourney, DALL-E, DaVinci) for your design.

Card designs of an R-rated nature will not be considered. Doomlings is a family-friendly game, so keep that in mind with your design.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

Can I design an age or catastrophe card?
No. This contest is for a trait card design only. Ages and catastrophes will not be considered. However, we may hold another competition for ages and catastrophes in the future, so keep your good ideas in mind!

Can I enter more than once?
No. Because of the overwhelming (and exciting!) amount of interest, we are only allowing ONE card design per person. If you design more than one, we will only count the first design that you enter.

I can't draw :( but I have an amazing idea, what do I do?
You should go ahead and give it a shot anyways. I'm sure your drawing will come out great! Either way - the final card will be touched up by an official Doomlings artist before it is released. So there is no need to worry! 

I don't have an Instagram account, can I still enter?
Yes! If you do not have an Instagram, card entries will be accepted in our other social communities. You can enter via our Facebook Group (you must tag Doomlings) or in our #fanart section in our Community Discord (please note in your post that you are using this as an entry).

My Instagram account is private, can I still enter?
Yes! Please share a screenshot of your entry by either DMing us on Instagram, or sending it to info@doomlings.com to be entered to win.

Do I need to add an effect and point value?
No, it is not required. However, if you have a fun idea - feel free to add it! Just be aware that the effect and point value may change completely once the card is released. (We will need to carefully play-test the final card to make sure it doesn't break the game!)

Can I design a Dinoling, Mythling, or Techling?
Yes! Feel free to draw inspiration from any previous expansions.

When will the card come out?
We do not have any effective timeline for when it will be released. But rest assured, we will make a big announcement when it finally does!

Is there anything I can do to help?
Absolutely! We have a co-working event coming up where you can hang out and vibe with community in our Discord on Wednesday, May 22nd at 2:30pm PST/5:30pm EST. Join our Doomlings Community Discord for more info!
