Kickstarter Weekly - April 25, 2014

Well it's been an exciting week here at TOG. The new spiffy site is up and running, and though we've had a few growing pains along the way, things are smoothing out as we go. Thanks for all the feedback and patience as we make this exciting change! So let's get back to more of what you enjoy about TOG!

 

Featured Campaign

The Agents - Saar Shai

The Agents stormed onto Kickstarter last year and quickly carved out their own niche in the gaming world. Well, they're back. The double-edged sword of card games is in the midst of another great and successful campaign and has already doubled the funding goal. This campaign is a re-print of the base game (with a few tweaks) and a bunch of expansions and add-ons, so if you backed the game last year, you will still want to check out this campaign! Keep your eyes peeled because we'll be reviewing The Agents here on TOG very soon!

  • Pledge Level for Base Game: $16 (Includes all stretch goals)

  • Campaign Ends: May 21, 2014

Dragon Slayer - Indie Boards and Cards

Dragon Slayer is a press-your-luck dice game "with a twist." Travis from IBC says he's been looking for a good dice-roller to add to the catalog for two years now, and Dragon Slayer is the one he's landed on. Players press their luck, roll dice, and try to slay the dragon. The twist comes in when the other players have the option to challenge them to continue rolling after they've decided not to. You can continue on and score big, or chicken out and face the consequences. IBC is known for delivering top-notch returns on your Kickstarter dollars so this seems like a no-brainer if you're into dice rollers!

  • Pledge level for base game: $13 - or if you backed Coup Reformation it's only $7!

Man vs. Apocalypse - Dice of March

Man vs. Apocalypse pits the players against well... the apocalypse. Which apocalypse you ask? Oh, only ALL OF THEM! Everything from natural disasters to plague rats! Everyone can now take a deep breath... It's not another zombie game. Dice of March is taking things slowly; the funding goal is low--and already met--and there are a few stretch goals that need to be unlocked, but they are related to Facebook shares and number of backers. They're more concerned with getting their name out there than with just raking in piles of cash. Plus, look at that really cool stylized art!!

  • Pledge level for base game: $10

Conquest of Speros - Grey Fox Games

Conquest of Speros is a card game for 2-4 players where the players are striving for the total Conquest...of Speros. The game unfolds as players conquer different cards and territories giving them special abilities and advantages. The campaign is clicking along, and they've already unlocked five stretch goals with plenty more to come. Not only that, but you can upgrade your forces from cubes to custom meeples from The Meeple Source, so there's that! There are just a few days left on this one, so you might want to jump in and help them hit some more sweet stretch goals!

  • Pledge level for base game: $19
