War of Olympus
Mythology-Inspired Strategy Game & Brand System
Project Overview
War of Olympus is an original collectible strategy card game rooted in Greek mythology. Designed for immersive, fast-paced team-based gameplay, players summon gods, cast mythical powers, and build decks inspired by iconic Olympians like Zeus, Ares, and Poseidon.
Beyond gameplay, the project explores worldbuilding, branding, and augmented storytelling through printed assets and AR technology. Players can scan select cards to bring characters to life using Adobe Aero, expanding the myth beyond the tabletop.
Design Strategy
Inspired by ancient temples and celestial lore, the design system blends classical motifs with modern fantasy visuals. Obsidian black and imperial gold set the base tone, supported by Aegean blue, crimson red, and marble white to represent the gods and their elements.
Typography choices include Sugar Magic for heroic headers and Austera Text for narrative depth. The card layouts were designed using a modular grid for balance and clarity across rarity levels, while the packaging evokes the weight and power of relics from Olympus.
