Inserts for Spirit Island + the following expansions and extra content:
These are probably the most compact inserts for Spirit Island+expansions as of 2025-06-24 assuming you want the thick Spirit boards. If you're fine with the thin foil boards and no premium tokens, you should look at these inserts that are even more compact!
Everything is made to fit the Spirit Island base game box and the Nature Incarnate box, along with all rule books, and with additional room for a few extras (I like to keep 4 copies of this deck tray, since they can be stored flat). There is a minimal amount of lid lift with all rule books (7mm for the Spirit Island box, 4mm for the Nature Incarnate box). Without the rule books, there is no lid lift at all.
IMPORTANT: with all this content packed in these two boxes, they become HEAVY! Handle the boxes with care. If you're transporting the game constantly, I recommend using a few elastic bands to help keep the boxes structurally strong. I've been packing them weekly on a backpack for months to bring to my regular board game meetings, and so far haven't noticed any issues with the boxes.
Note that these inserts are mostly for (very) compact storage. They weren't made with the intention of playing the game by removing tokens directly from them, like other inserts. I usually have sets of trays for tokens that I always use when playing to make it easier to pick up tokens when playing. It's still possible to keep the tokens in their inserts when playing the game, it might just be a bit annoying to constantly remove and put them back if you want a tidy table space. On the bright side, since everything is in its own container, you only need to remove the exact containers you need to play the game, and keep the rest packed in the game boxes.
Many containers have some extra guides inside them to allow you to seat each token with the same alignment. I also separated most tokens into two containers to make it easier for multiple people to grab tokens at the same time (if you're playing directly with the containers instead of moving them to trays).
If you print everything I made, you'll use around 1.65kg of filament. Printing times will depend on your printer configuration. For me it takes around 80h to print everything (~120 mm/s speed).
NOTE: almost every container has a lid to keep things tight when transporting the game (especially on a backpack like I do). Make sure your printer is tuned and has reasonable tolerances (mine has 0.2mm). Start by printing a small container and its lid to check if your printed is printing parts that fit well!
In general you only need to print 1 copy of each file, except for the following:
You can print almost everything with a 0.4mm nozzle, 0.2mm layer height. The boxes for element tokens can also be printed this way, but the printer will likely remove most details for each element icon, which means it gets harder to tell them apart. Looking for suggestions on how to improve this for 0.4mm nozzles, but you can also go down to 0.2mm for the element boxes to get the proper details.
Beware that the walls on the containers are thinner than in most other models (they're usually 1mm) - this was needed to fit everything. They're still going to hold everything very well, but some people may use too much force when handling the containers, and this might break them, especially when sliding lids in and out.
I don't have a printer that allows me to easily print multi-colour models, so I made all of this assuming a single material. I plan on getting a multi-material printer in the future, and I may update these models to make multi-colour printing work better whenever that happens.
I included a PDF file that has a diagram of each layer to pack in each box. The proportions are semi-realistic - I did my best in the diagram. Take a look at the images for a more realistic view of each layer.
The Dahan and Presence token containers were built to allow you to easily slide the components in and out. There's a “vertical lid” that stops the components from sliding out when packing. You have to put that one first before closing the container with the horizontal lid.
Some of the icons used in the STL files came from game-icons.net (CC BY 3.0 license). Other icons were taken from the Spirit Island wiki (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0 license). The rest of the icons were all traced by me by hand.
I didn't make this with commercial use in mind, but if you're interested in buying the models for commercial use, let me know. I can rework the icons that are CC BY-NC-SA. I just haven't done so already because I don't know if anybody would be interested in that.
