About this board game

Chiseled is a deck-sculpting game for 1–4 players that takes about 30 minutes to play. Step into a shared studio as an artist working to complete a marble sculpture before the critics make their final assessment.

Each player begins with a deck of cards representing their starting marble. Use one tool at a time from the shared workbench to remove and accentuate cards, gradually improving the artistic value of your deck. Every tool offers a unique way to interact with the marble, giving your sculpting process its own distinct possibilities.

The three critics are central to the studio’s deadline. Please them to earn bonuses, and check in with them as you work toward a rating. The game ends when any player has checked in with all three critics enough times to get rated, so completing your sculpture is a race against the progress of the studio.

  • Deck-sculpting gameplay: remove and accentuate cards to improve your deck’s artistic value.
  • Shared workbench: choose from available tools, each with a unique method of interacting with the marble.
  • Critic bonuses: seek the approval of three critics while working toward a rating.
  • Flexible play: take on a single-player score challenge or compete with 2–4 players.

Chiseled combines marble sculpting, evolving decks, and a shared studio deadline in a focused tabletop experience. Whether you are pursuing a personal score or racing other artists, every tool choice helps shape the finished work.
