Special Reserve Games

In 2016, video game fan Jeff “Smitty” Smith and his team founded Special Reserve Games. They created collector’s bundles around some popular indie video games which are playable on the Nintendo Switch, Playstation, and PC platforms.

From Digital to Physical

In order to maintain their goal of giving gamers a practical experience with gaming, they needed a well designed box to complement the games.

Special Reserve Gaming opted for very elegant box designs that are relevant to the aesthetic of their games. Their boxes are specifically designed as an extension of the gaming bundles they offer so the customer can experience games in a whole new way. It is their way of storytelling outside of the game. The SRG team pride themselves in creating an outstanding and personalized unboxing experience. Therefore they created unique packaging for each of their games.

Crossing Souls

Crossing Souls is a modern take of an 80's action-adventure arcade game that happens in the suburbs of California. A group of friends discover a mysterious pink stone that allows them to travel between two realms.

To deliver the 80’s arcade vibe, SRG created this packaging with fonts and designs that were used in that area. The bright pink and purple colors symbolize the mysterious pink stone and arcade games. The character on the bicycle on the side of the box is a resemblance of the adventures in this game.

The game allows you to control 5 different characters, each with their special skills and take this journey while facing powerful bosses and complex puzzles.

On the inside of the box, on the lid, the image of the group of friends who take this journey together is placed. On the bottom of the box, you see one of the powerful bosses that stands between you and your adventure.

The Swords of Ditto: Mormo’s Curse (Signature Edition)

SRG continues to impress with their storytelling design with this next custom mailer box for the signature edition of The Swords of Ditto.

For this box, they included a picture preview of the game inside the box to display a sneak peek during the unboxing experience. Outside of the box is covered with a light sky blue background and clouds.
The yellow ribbon and bow makes the box look like a gift since it is the signature edition of the game.
