Realm of Heroes - Mr. B. Games
There are just a few days left to get in on this one. Mr. B. Games brings us Realm of Heroes, a tile-placement/area-control game that has players making a power play to control the land after the death of the king. Mr. B. Games has already made good on their first Kickstarter, Spurs, and is in the process of manufacturing Alien Uprising. Realm of Heroes dives into yet another genre for Mr. B, and has an easy price-point to get in on!

Antidote - Bellwether Games
This one JUST WENT LIVE, but here's a little bit of what you can look for from some notes given to us by the publisher.
In Antidote, you are a laboratory scientist working for a giant chemical research conglomerate. When a deadly toxin suddenly infects you and your team, you must work quickly to share your research and discover the Antidote before its too late. In the game, players take turns deciding which actions all other players take: either discard from their hand or trade research with other players. Eventually all your cards will run-out and you will be left with just one that you must "drink," and hope its the right one! If this card is the true Antidote, you're cured! If not...you die, but you can always try again! Antidote is a deduction style card game for 2-6 players that plays in about 20 minutes.

Ophir - Terra Nova Games
A merchant game, Ophir pits players against each other as they buy and sell goods in order to build a temple in the ancient world of Ophir. The temple building mechanic looks slick for this one, and there's a lot of good buzz going around about it on the interwebs!
