Origo! – A Word Game



Origo is a card game created to make learning word origins (etymology) fun and accessible.

Etymology is the study of the origin of words and their meanings. It is often considered to be boring and difficult to understand. ‘Origo!’ employs the use of illustrations to make the process exciting.
The project involved creating gameplays, content curation, design of the cards, and packaging.



The illustrations act as abstract clues for the players to guess the origin of the word.
Players get points for guessing the correct origin, as well as making people think the origin story they have created is the right one. The player with the most points wins the game.
The evolution of the cards with every play-test.
