Kickstarter Weekly - July 24, 2014

Oh yes... We know we missed Kickstarter Weekly last week, and yes, we've already told you about two pretty awesome campaigns this week. But we feel it's necessary and expected that we bring you this week's Kickstarter weekly piece and assemble all the campaigns that are worth taking a look at, riiiiight here: 

Featured Campaign!

The Resistance - Hostile Intent & Hidden Agenda

Yes, we've gone over this before, but, seriously: Adding these two expansions will give you more Resistance than Georg Ohm. One pledge scores you both expansions, and each one comes with multiple modules that give you tons of variable roles to include in your regular version of the Resistance. There are also two additional modules that are exclusive to Kickstarter backers. So what are you waiting for!?

  • Title - The Resistance - Hostile Intent & Hidden Agenda

  • Campaign ends - Aug. 9, 2014

  • Pledge for base game - $20

  • Find it here!


N3ON City RUMBLE - Davy Wagnarok

Set in a retro-modern land where a freak accident takes place and mutates a bunch of rowdy street fighters, NEON City Rumble is a card-based battle game, pitting two players against each other in an all-out brawl. The artwork looks super bright and vibrant in that retro 90's kind of way... Wait a minute? We're calling the 90's retro now? Oof.  Anyway. The imagery really pops on this one, and if you want to try it before you buy it, there are PnP files available over on the campaign page! 

  • Title - N3ON City RUMBLE

  • Campaign ends - Aug. 15, 2014

  • Pledge for base game - $29

Vaults - Four Hogs

Vaults is a steampunky safe-cracking card game. 2-4 players play as crime-syndicate bosses looking to be the richest crime lord in town. To do that you'll assemble teams of safe cracks and go after vaults of varying levels. This is a game that relies on action management and strategy to successfully crack vaults and get paid. 

  • Title - Vaults

  • Campaign ends - Aug. 21, 2014

AquaSphere by Stefan Feld - Micheal Mindes

Another one we've talked about this week, but the window to get in on this one is super short! In this beautiful-looking marine-themed game by renowned designer Stefan Feld, players will play to discover who is the best Aquanaut, using programming and discovery strategies. If you're a fan of this genre and/or Stefan Feld there's plenty of incentive to jump in on this Kickstarter--20 of them in fact. Backers will get the game for $20 less than the retail price! 

  • Title - AquaSphere by Stefan Feld

  • Campaign ends - July 31, 2014

  • Pledge for base game - $40
