About project

We are developing Draw Arena (Google Play, App Store) – a midcore PvE game with a card system, where players draw their units and battle for control on the battlefield.

The game is currently in soft launch, and our goal is to transition from ad-based monetization to in-app purchases (IAP).

We are looking for an experienced Game Designer who can balance the game in a way that encourages players to naturally transition into spending money.

• Develop the difficulty curve in collaboration with the level design team.
• Create a monetization strategy for the project, including well-defined paywalls.
• Adjust the balance of difficulty and economy based on A/B tests and analytical data.
• Review and optimize the unit progression system.
• Work with analysts to integrate new events into the game and manage custom dashboards.
• Set pricing in the in-game store.
