The Crowdfunding Thread

As mentioned elsewhere:

Maybe it is worth checking my own indie success quota. Does Button Shy still qualify as “Indie” at the time of their publishing of Sprawlopolis?

  • Karmaka - donated
  • Sprawlopolis: YAY! Awesome!
  • Villagers - given to friends hope they keep it (but it got a sequel and localization so maybe it’s just me)
  • Lovelace & Babbage: given to friends (I hate the amount of math)
  • Periodic Table of Elements - trying to find someone to take this
  • Obsession: YAY! I love this one. But I got in on the second expansion KS… so no surprise this one is good.
  • Moonrakers: after some conflict during our first game this has languished in a corner but still it is an awesome production, has a decent solo mode and is probably a good deck builder/negotiation game with more than just 2 players.
  • Way of the Samurai: my first play didn’t quite grab me, have to try again
  • Izayoi: lovely little game, cannot play with 2 people…
  • Micro City: it’s not a bad game and if Sprawlopolis didn’t exist I’d love this one more.
  • edit: forgot Mint Cooperative. It’s fine. If traveling still were a thing…

So 2 stand out, 4 are in the “no keeps” section and 4 need more plays.

My other Kickstarters were all on the “big names” side or haven’t delivered yet. I have a few weird ones on my list. But mostly I wait until a game is into “first expansion” …
