The Game Crafter

alex-gon/thegamecrafter-mcp-server

Connects Claude to The Game Crafter's API for managing tabletop game projects without touching the web interface. You get tools for browsing the component catalog (cards, boards, boxes), creating and updating game projects, uploading artwork, adding components like poker decks or tuck boxes, and running pricing estimates with per-component cost breakdowns. Also includes guided prompts that walk you through setting up a new game from scratch or estimating production costs. Runs locally via npx or remotely through a hosted Apify endpoint. Built for indie board game designers who'd rather prototype and price their games through conversation than click through TGC's dashboard. Enforces rate limits and includes resources for cached catalog data.
