Hello, Armelians!
We hope you are having a great weekend full of good games and great friends!
Since it's the weekend we are going to take a little break from Armello: The Board Game and talk about some other awesome stuff like friends and... other games. A wonderful thing about working in the game industry is that most people you know, or meet are gamers! We are pretty lucky to work somewhere where gaming is your work and your hobby - not a bad way to roll.
We enjoy supporting other game companies and are thankful for the encouragement our peers give us. We are super proud that over the years we have backed nearly 200 Kickstarter projects and have helped 171 other games get funded! In fact, during the course of this campaign we have already backed three other games! Galactic Cruise, Craft and Conquor: Medieval and The Red Dragon Inn - Adventure is Nigh!
Speaking of Red Dragon Inn, the folks at SlugFest Games have been long time supporters of our products and helped us in many ways over the years. We'd like to take a moment to share a project from our buddies. They've teamed up with the folks from Second Wind to create The Red Dragon Inn - Adventure is Nigh; a new RDI starter set featuring the iconic characters of the D&D live play series!
You probably know the premise already, but here goes - after another wild adventure it’s time you kicked back with your buddies for a party at your favorite nightclub. Brawl, gamble and drink your way through the night as a unique character with their own deck, traits and mechanics. The last adventurer standing wins! Best of all, since this starter set is fully compatible with The Red Dragon Inn, you can mix and match characters to your heart's content to add players and variety to your games!
Want to learn more about Adventure is Nigh? You can watch a recap of seasons 1 and 2 here on YouTube!
SlugFest Games has also just declared all stretch goals unlocked, and that means all backers will get to choose between a set with the Adventure is Nigh animation-style art, or one with Red Dragon Inn-style art (and if they want, backers can pledge for both!). Here's a sample of the RDI-style art;
The entertaining match between the fantasy adventure humor of Adventure is Nigh and The Red Dragon Inn can't be denied. If you like what you see here, give their campaign a look!
Thanks for indulging us in supporting other projects. Next week we will be back with more Armello including some more editions to Designer Rob Heinsoo's Design Diary.
