/Well, we find ourselves with another week gone by, and another great lineup of Kickstarter campaigns to check out! So what are we waiting for?
I thought you'd never ask!
Featured Campaign!
Bomb Squad - Tasty Minstrel Games
TMG, not to be confused with TMZ, is back at it with a real-time co-op game that puts players in a high-pressure hostage situation, as you send in a robot that you've programmed to attempt to disarm the bomb! In the ever-expanding genre of co-op play, this is an interesting new installment!

Movie Plotz - Jason Tagmire
Jason Tagmire is Kickstarting another storytelling venture, this time designed by Alex Strang. Movie Plotz is a storytelling mini-game that has players creating, well, a movie plot. The game takes players through character development, story arc etc, and comes in a nice little pocket-sized package! If you're a fan of Story Cubes, or Jason Tagmire's Storyteller Cards, this is definitely worth a look, especially with the very accessible price point!

Galactic Arena - Storyception Games
Galactic Arena is a two-player arena battle game! Pick your hero, go to the arena, and have at you!! There's a set of multiplayer rules so you can put the smackdown on more than one person at a time!

King Down - Saar Shai
Saar Shai is perhaps best known for making his mark in the gaming world with The Agents, a fun double-edged card game of espionage and intrigue. Well he's back with a game that claims to be the prequel to Chess! King Down pits players against each other as they vie for the crown of a fallen king. It blends strategic movement and card play all into one. And those miniatures... whoa.
