The tabletop board game adaptation of 11 bit’s wartime survival game This War Of Mine launched its Kickstarter campaign today… and within three hours it has already been fully funded and is now inching closer to doubling up on its initial funding target of $57k (and some change) and achieving all of the current stretch goal targets.
From the Kickstarter description:
“This War of Mine: The Board Game is a fully co-operative, open and play, survival experience. In this challenging, story-driven game for 1-6 players, you will play as group of civilians trapped in a city torn by a military conflict.
To survive, you will need to make tough moral choices, delivered in a role-playing style. You will also scavenge, manage, fight, trade and upgrade your shelter. This tabletop adaptation is based on one of the biggest indie games of recent years. TWOM: TBG offers you an experience that is hard to come by in any other tabletop game. Combined with the highest quality components created by experienced companies, this title will fully engage you with its meaningful story. It is high time for board games to address important topics.”
A special livestream event is also now underway showing off the board game as well as a live painting of the board game’s box artwork. Check that out at the YouTube video below.
