For the "Do It Yourself" (DIY) gamer, create your own boardgame hextiles using your PC and printer, our die-cut CardMogrifier Hextiles package, and our downloadable templates.
Our Kickstarter Page has a video showing how to create your own hextiles using a simple three-step process using our die cut stickers and boards. First, use your favorite program to place the images using our free downloadable template. Second, print your images on our custom sticker sheet. Third, affix your printed hexes to the cardboard hextiles and punch them out. Here's the link:

Want double-sided hextiles? No problem! The stickers adhere to both sides of the cardboard tiles.
Prototypes are a natural, but be creative! Hextiles can be used for gag gifts with your own text and images, gamer calling cards, coasters, and just about anything else you can print on a hex.
How about a dungeon crawl where you turn over the GM-placed or randomly drawn hexes to explore the hallways and rooms? How about a 3-D stairway with stacked hexes as stairs? Or a star map including not only the 2D 'x' and 'y' coordinates, but also the 3-D 'z' coordinates?
With Hextiles, the only limit is your imagination.
The hexes are 3.125 inches (or 79.5 mm), as this is the most common size in gaming worldwide. They match those used in the Settlers of Catan games, but we made ours thicker for greater longevity of use. We've made the hextiles white on the front and black on the back, giving you the choice of background or border. The hextile sticker sheets are die cut using digital, pressure-sensitive material designed for use with both Laser and Inkjet print technology. If you've already got the cardboard hexes from lots of games, the hex stickers are sold separately.
As you can see from the Kickstarter video, it's easy to put the two together.
If this gets funded, it's possible that we might create other sized hexes, just the same way we started with poker-sized cards and made a line of different-sized cards. We'll see.

You can help by contacting fellow gamers and letting them know we're running a KS campaign for CardMogrifier Hextiles. You never know who might want to make hexes. Link below…
Stop by and watch the KS video: it's only 1:20 long.
Finally, please support us by making a pledge for one of the variety of packages available. Our KS campaign runs through July 10. As of today, we're 86% of the way there.
