I kind of love this. They put a lot of design work into the Kickstarter page, and even got a prototype made for this awful, awful concept for a game. This is the most sincere pitch for a weird fetish game and it's almost adorable.

Bodanarko posted:Has anyone in here backed Tang Garden? I don’t recall it coming up in here but I’m a sucker for a pretty game that doesn’t overlap with other themes in my collection. I backed it at the max level kind of begrudgingly. Not sure how all the stretch goals and expansion content will shake out, but the core game looks like a solid, relaxing couples game, and the fiancee is a sucker for the Japanese theme. If the KS stuff winds up over complicating things I'm sure I'll be able to unload it on somebody.

I'm backing because I have a soft spot for the brand, was one of the first mobile games / time-wasters I spent a lot of time with. And it does look entertaining! Really light, good family-weight game. I love the idea of non-timed real-time, akin to the build phase for Galaxy Trucker.

I'm just asking because I want the softcover book (and the action cards) but don't need the dominos that also come in that tier. If I can just print out my own action cards from the PDF, I'll swing for the softcover tier instead.

The Kickstarter for CMON's Cthulhucide: Kill Cthulhu, and Death, is Now Live Shoot ancient unfathomable cosmic horror in the face with 1920s era weaponry as the public domain works of H.P. Lovecraft are raided for hot new content. Skip the boring investigation parts of Fantasy Flight's weak-rear end Arkham and Eldritch Horror games and get right to the meat of Lovecraft's works, shooting things to kill them, as CMON takes a fresh look at an underused theme. Hopefully someone edited the Wiki page on Lovecraft monsters so we get some new elder gods in here! Lovingly-crafted cosmic horror and cultist miniatures for only $100. Please contribute because only with your help can publicly-traded CMON Limited bring this project to fruition. Help the creators see their dream of creating Cthulu is Dead: Now Kill Death come true.

I like the snark post, but with boring earnestness, as someone who's actually backed (often mistakenly) a good chunk of CMON's nonsense, this looks honestly terrible. It looks a lot like a weird hybrid of a warmed-over "The Others" (ditching the one vs. many but otherwise looking mechanically similar) and "Arkham Horror" (complete with roll-a-die item/encounter cards). That statuette expansion (the minis can go on the base!) is nonsense besides, although WTF do I know, I bought that dumb Cthulhu horrorclix statuette thirteen or so years ago, so Young Me would clearly have been their target audience. It's nice to be able to look at it, much like I did at Hate, and immediately hard-pass. Now if I'd only done that for Rising Sun...

Maybe if you regularly walk to your game store/meetup spot several times a month? I do like this design more than the Game Haul style rectangle backpacks because of all the side pockets and things. If you're just hauling games from the trunk of your car and back, something like This will do the trick for a fraction of the price. It's better than an ikea bag since it'll keep the rain off your games. Chubbs fucked around with this message at 20:23 on Jul 10, 2018 |

Update: The comments section at Cthulhu: Death May Durr is amazing right now. I hadn't even initially noticed the fact that their megature pack has been incrementally increased in early bird pledge levels of 100 backers each - each pledge level has been subsequently added at $5 higher and 1 month later delivery and it's already gone from $220 to $245 (presumably $250 is next) and backers are, imo rightfully, pissed. Just a bizarre marketing move.

I'm at two Cthulhu games these days, Arkham lcg and the hornet leader expansion where you nuke Cthulhu, and that already feels like too many. No zombie games, though, although the dawn of the zeds ks is kind of tempting. The states of siege games I've played were good...

Memnaelar posted:Update: I'm amazed that many people want a giant Cthulu, uh, miniature. I think the first backer level with 250 slots sold out in under a minute. I like a lot of the PC minis, but Cthulu monsters all look the same to me. Hastur is neat. I think rising sun was the last CMON game where the miniatures really impressed me.
