Boulevard Engine-Building Card Game Template
by ShuffleKit
An engine-building city card set with Monuments, Midway, Market, Salon and Foundry fronts and a shared back, cut to poker size and print-ready. A painting fills each card under a plate of cream ability tiles in the top-left corner, a gold ribbon hangs from the top edge with the card's points on it, and a column of coloured hexes down the left edge shows what it costs in Brick, Timber, Stone, Gold and Glass. The name runs across the foot of the picture in heavy condensed capitals, and the rules sit on a panel in the district's colour whose top edge steps up into a tab carrying the district's mark. The District column picks each card's front. Cost and Traits are icon columns with every resource and ability ready to pick. Comes with a ten-card sample deck, two from each district: a memorial arch, an observatory, a masked strongman, a carousel, a market hall, a balloon cart, an opera house, a clockwork pianist, a foundry and an inventor's workshop.

What’s in Boulevard Engine-Building Card Game Template
Six designs: Monuments Card, Midway Card, Market Card, Salon Card, Foundry Card and Card Back.
Your cards live in a sheet, one row each, with a column for every field the designs read: Name, Artwork, Cost, Points, Traits, Description and District. Ten of those rows arrive filled in, so there is something on the design before you type a word.
Read the ten sample cards
| Name | Points | Description | District |
|---|---|---|---|
| Memorial Arch | 6 | When you build this, gain 1 Prestige for each Monument you own. Visitors placed here can never be moved or sent home. | Monuments |
| Star Observatory | 4 | At the start of each round, look at the top three cards of the draw pile, then put them back on the pile in any order you like. | Monuments |
| Masked Strongman | 2 | Discard 1 Stone: every other player loses 1 Gold to the bank. A player with no Gold left to lose gives you 1 Timber instead. | Midway |
| Grand Carousel | 3 | Each time another player sends a Visitor to one of your Midway cards, take 1 Gold from the bank, up to 3 Gold each round. | Midway |
| Covered Market | 3 | Once each round, you may trade any two of your resources to the bank for one of your choice, or any three for two. | Market |
| Balloon Seller | 1 | When you build this, take 1 Gold from the bank for each Midway card in play, counting yours and every other player's. | Market |
| Opera House | 5 | At the end of the game, score 1 extra point for each Salon card you own, this one included, and 2 more if you own a card from every district. | Salon |
| Clockwork Pianist | 2 | Once each round, pay 1 Gold to wind it up, then use the effect of another Salon card you own a second time this round. | Salon |
| Iron Foundry | 2 | At the start of each round, gain 1 Stone. Every card you build from now on costs you 1 less Brick, down to a minimum of none. | Foundry |
| Tinkerer's Workshop | 1 | When you build a Foundry card, draw a card from the pile. You may then build that card at once, paying one resource less for it. | Foundry |
Printing at poker size
Poker: 2.5 × 3.5 in, 63.5 × 88.9 mm, 750 × 1050 pixels at 300 DPI.
On the Hobby plan, export a print-ready PDF with bleed and cut lines. PNG and SVG come out at the same size, which is what Tabletop Simulator wants. On Indie, send it to a print-on-demand partner through Print & Ship.
A printer asks for an eighth of an inch of bleed on every edge on top of those numbers, so this card goes out as 825 × 1125. The export adds it. Let the artwork run into the bleed and keep the text inside the cut line, and nothing arrives trimmed.
Questions about Boulevard Engine-Building Card Game Template
Everything you need to know before getting started.

What happens when I add Boulevard Engine-Building Card Game Template to a project?
The six designs, the seven fields and the ten sample cards are copied into a project of yours, with the fields already pointed at the design. Nothing stays linked to this page afterwards, so the author's later edits never reach your copy.
What size does Boulevard Engine-Building Card Game Template print at?
Poker size: 2.5 × 3.5 in, 63.5 × 88.9 mm, 750 × 1050 pixels at 300 DPI. Those are the numbers to hand a print shop, and the ones to check a sleeve against.
Is Boulevard Engine-Building Card Game Template free?
Yes. Adding it, editing it, filling it with your own cards and playtesting it online are all free. Exporting print files starts on the Hobby plan, and Print & Ship through The Game Crafter is on Indie. No template sits behind a paid plan.
Can I change the designs?
Yes. They land in your project as ordinary layouts, so you can drag an element somewhere else, put your own art behind the frame, restyle the type or rename a field. Edit a design once and every card on it follows.
Can I use my own cards instead of the samples?
Yes — the samples are rows in a sheet, and they are there to be overwritten. Type over them, add rows of your own, or bring a CSV and match its headers to the fields.
Can I sell a game made with Boulevard Engine-Building Card Game Template?
Yes. This one is ours, and you keep commercial rights to what you build from it, crowdfunding and retail included.
