Yrkesproffset

Yrkesproffset is a printed quiz card game about the professions of Sweden. 120 jobs, 360 questions across 6 categories, for 2 to 6 players from age 8. I designed the game, used AI to create every card illustration, and had it printed as a real product.

What I built
The whole product: the concept, the categories and questions, the card and box design, and the print-ready artwork, using AI for the illustrations.

Background

The problem

Most people have no idea what a rescue diver, an occupational therapist or a school counsellor actually does all day. Sweden's professions are genuinely interesting, but there is no fun, tactile way to learn them together.

The idea

A physical quiz card game about real Swedish professions: 120 jobs, 360 questions across 6 colour-coded categories, playable by 2 to 6 people from age 8. Learn by guessing, together at the table.

Key decisions

  • Decision 1

    Physical and tactile: a real game for the table, not an app.

  • Decision 2

    Colour-coded categories so the deck reads at a glance.

  • Decision 3

    AI art for range and consistency across 120 professions.

How I built it

  1. 01

    Chose 120 professions across 6 colour-coded categories.

  2. 02

    Wrote 360 questions, three per card, with an answer key for every card.

  3. 03

    Used AI to generate a consistent illustration for each profession.

  4. 04

    Designed the cards, the box and the print files to a real production spec.

What came of it

What I learned

  • AI let one person art-direct 120 consistent illustrations.
  • A tactile product needs the same rigour as software: specs, consistency and print tolerances.

Next steps

  • A second edition with more professions and categories.
  • A companion web or app version of the quiz.

Business potential

Quiz and party games are a proven retail category with strong gifting demand. A Swedish-professions angle is distinctive, and the format extends easily to new editions and themes.

Happy to walk through the thinking, the trade-offs and where it's headed next.
