Watch “Build your own tabletop assembly line with cards and coins - and start Makin' Stuff!,” a how-to-play guide for Makin' Stuff on BoardGameVideo.

Description provided by NewVenture Games on YouTube:

The cards represent machines that make stuff! Starting with an unlimited Power Source, arrange your cards to produce more stuff than your opponents. Start here: https://newventuregames.com/products/makin-stuff After positioning your cards carefully, you activate your network of machines to produce "stuff" (represented by mini poker chips). This stuff can be used to make more stuff, or set aside to add to your final score. Deciding what cards to play and when to activate them is the key, BUT random things do happen - breakdowns and malfunctions, like any factory, but also the potential for high efficiency performance!

Makin' Stuff

2025·David McCord

About Makin' Stuff, from BoardGameGeek:

Makin' Stuff is an "engine building" game with cards, chips, and dice, in which all players are constructing a Stuff Factory. Making Stuff not only produces Stuff, but the machines also run on Stuff, and you can bargain with the other players using Stuff. The objective is to make the most Stuff. On each turn you can add to your Stuff Factory, activate the Stuff-Making machinery, and manipulate the Stuff between players. Finally, in the production phase, you'll try to make more Stuff than all the other players. You could be a Stuff Tycoon! -description from the publisher
