Weekly Kickstarter Round Up: Wednesday 28th April

It's been a busy week for Kickstarter, making this list tricky to cut down! However, we've done our best, so read on for a round up of some of the Kickstarters available from this week.

 

Hellboy: The Board Game Expansions and Dice Game

If you liked the Hellboy: The Board Game, this is the one for you. As part of a paid promo Claire and Charlie teamed up to play through the dice game, and you can see from the below video just how much fun was had! This Kickstarter will let you pick up four expansions to the base game, and that dice game too. Read more about it here, or head over to their Kickstarter to pledge. 

Is it funded? Yes

What’s the pledge to get a copy? £79

When does it end? Friday, May 7th 2021

My Father's Work

A Victorian mad scientist game that's not going to be available through distribution, meaning if you want the cheaper price, the Kickstarter is the way to do it! This is a 2-4 player game as competing mad scientists complete experiments based on a page from their fathers journal. You'll need to aid the town, upgrade the estate, and complete their fathers work in an app driven game. And if you're worried about playing the same game twice, Renegade Games have crunched the numbers - you've got only a 1 in 13,808,372,000,000 chance of doing so!

Is it funded? Yes

What’s the pledge to get a copy? $99 (about £72)

Dice Theme Park

You know and love Dice Hospital, well now comes Dice Theme Park! The dice act as your visitor in the follow up to the original, where you're going to be building your own theme park, competing for visitors, attractions, and mascots, and maximising the enjoyment of the attendees. Including a new dice cascading mechanic, you'll pop down the dice activated and move them to an adjacent tile that you activate and move again...they call it "combo-tastic!"

 

Is it funded? Yes

King's Trial

You may have seen the trailer for this game ahead of time at our Virtual Spring Showcase! A dragon has appeared in the Kingdom, cutting off the King from being able to access his favourite foods, and he's offering the seat on the throne in exchange for convincing the dragon to leave. It's a tile laying game for the family, and a first game for Laughing Hyena Games.
