Overview

Cuy Games is a retail board game and puzzle store based in Peru, The store was launched in 2020 we have been building and upgrading their e-commerce website since the beginning. Despite having incredible success in sales they wanted to make a major upgrade on the UI and UX.

We began performing extensive research to find current problems with our previous design that might affect the business during its progressive growth.

Insight

Optimizing the Navigation

We found that many board game and puzzle web stores in the industry don’t have clear navigation, One of the challenges was to improve the user experience with a very intuitive menu that allows users to find their products quickly.

Product attributes

In a gameboard and puzzle store we found that grouping the most important information about the products in a single section will allow users to read all the details quickly and make a faster purchase decision.

Filter and search results

The Cuygames store currently has over 2k different products in their catalog. We found that the listing page is where users can spend more navigation time while performing a product search.

To deliver an enjoyable and easy-to-use experience we optimize the product attributes in order to help users filter very quickly according to the product price, age, puzzle piece quantity, and playtime range. Also, we add the brand over each item to help users easily recognize the desired product. All this comes along with a full upgrade of the entire user interface and we loved the results.
