One of the first game I ever backed was The Networks. I game about running a TV Station. It's super fun, so when the expansion came out on Kickstarter I backed it without a second thought....and I regret it.
Several unexplained delays, shallow excuses and just plain bad communication with the backers has soured my taste for the publisher. This is the only game on the list I backed in 2017 and in that time 2 other games have gotten me BEFORE this game has.
What's worse is that this game is just extra cards added to the game where the other two games were chalked full of meeples, figures and special dice.
Yeah, when this one comes in it's going to be more of a reminder of my regret than excitement.
Speaking of expansions to games I have, there this one. I backed it mainly because my entire board game group loves it while I'm really so-so on it. It didn't cost much and it looks like it could bring some new stuff to the game so I'm interested in seeing how much it improves once I add the expansion.
Seeing a theme here? Not only is this another expansion but to a game I think it pretty darn fun! I missed the first kickstarter for the base game and regretted it. This time around I got in immediately and by the time this posts I may actually be playing the game!
Sea dinos, more events, executives and areas to control is going to catapult this game to new heights on my list. Love the early 90's look to the game as well!
I've been looking for this game on and off for over a year. It looks fantastic but it cost SO much because it's out of print. But the day they brought the 2nd edition to Kickstarter I was among the FIRST to pledge!
This game looks excellent and for less than half the cost of an old version, I'll be receiving one sometime early next year.
Dang it. I'm a StrongBad Fan and when I saw this game I knew I had to have it. They even made Homestar Runner meeples of all the characters from the cartoon that serve NO purpose in the game but I want them all the same! The game looks very simple but only because it's Trogdor, I had to back it on principle alone!
Looking forward to this one as well in 2019!
I have the game and wasn't interested in buying a new version of it but when I saw they were offering the hugely expensive mini-expansions for cheap I had to get them! I LOVE this game and want the mini-expansions but they go for $100 a pop on Ebay and nothing so small is worth that amount of money.
$30 (including shipping) was right up my alley. The game's already great, these mini-expansions won't make it better but won't hurt it either. Looking forward to this one coming in soon.
Backed this one early in the year and though I'm disappointed about the multiple delays they've had with the game (causing it to be released now in mid-2019) but other than that, the game looks like it's going to be both fun and beautiful looking, since it's using imitation sugar cubes and coffee beans for it's pieces, I think this one's going to look great when it comes out.
Just hope they'll be no more delays.
I'm so excited to have a chance at playing this game exactly 20 years from the day I first played the original. I'm looking forward to all the expansions and new gameplay. It looks beautiful, colorful and full of fun! I had a chance to see the demo at BGG Spring Con this year, however I didn't get a chance to play it.
This would've been my #1...but then this news came out....
The CMON edition is going to be incredible I just know it. Once this comes out, I will back it immediately, no hesitation. Done. I have the original version of the game, love it. Will NEVER let it leave my collection but I am SO looking forward to adding this one to my collection as well.
It will be a day of great celebration when it arrives at my doorstep.
