Create A Phoenician Fleet, Escape An Alien Ship, And More Now On Kickstarter
This week’s Kickstarter roundup includes tiny, cozy dragon hoards, alien ship escape rooms, treasure chests, and much more!
The Great Sea & Towers of Sifnos
These two historically based board games will bring you to the times of the Phoenicians and Ancient Greeks to sail, explore, defend, and build your civilizations. Both games are immersive, beautiful, and vibrant. And you can pledge for one of them, or both.
From their homeland in the Levant to the distant shores of Carthage, the Phoenicians made a name for themselves as master traders, seafarers, and navigators. Their fierce bireme galleys completely dominated the Mediterranean with a focus on protecting their vital trade networks. They developed a new script for writing and produced elaborate jewelry, pottery, intricate glassware, and highly valuable purple fabrics. AS a city state leader of Tyre, Sidon, Byblos, or Arwad, you need to assemble your fearsome Phoenician fleet and establish your influence across The Great Sea.
Rifts: Phase World
Phase World brings the Savage Worlds system to space. It combines epic sci-fi with the fast-paced gameplay Savage Worlds is known for. Players will take on the roles of cosmic adventurers, finding artifacts, solving ancient mysteries, and using a combination of tech and magic.
In the Rifts: Phase World® universe, magic, technology, and superpowers combine to create space opera adventure on a galactic scale. Ultra-powerful Cosmo-Knights soar unaided through space! Starships exchange broadsides with enchanted vessels! Techno-Wizards battle eldritch invaders for control of entire star systems.
At the center of this universe lies Phase World® itself: The commercial and technological heart of cosmic civilization, the terminus of all known spacelanes, and through its transdimensional gates, a connection to hundreds of other universes. Phase World has enthralled RPG players for decades, and with Rifts: Phase World® for Savage Worlds, Star Anvil brings this amazing setting to a whole new generation of gamers.
Acres
Based on the game creator’s actual family tree farm, Acres is a game of harvesting as much as you can. Protect your land, nurture your farm, and try to get as much lumber on the truck as possible when harvest time comes. And if you do well, you’ll get your share of the family’s tree fortune.
On the family tree farm, fences are rare, and land is shared… until it isn’t. Each turn, plant, grow, and harvest trees growing your wealth and share of the family fortune. You’ll have to carefully manipulate the turn order to score big with action bonuses based on how you draft.
AdvertisementTrying to harvest as many trees as possible is goal number one, how you do that will be planned according to how well and far your truck can travel! The sneaky mechanic that players will be introduced to is AREA CONTROL, meaning, the more fences you place in the forest, the more acres you protect for just your truck come harvest time!
Precious Things
Dragons can hoard many cozy, mundane things. Like yarn, books, or seeds (you may have to battle a chipmunk for those). Your dragon will protect their home, add to their hoard, and make all sorts of equally cozy acquaintances.
Precious Things puts you inside the scales of a small dragon with a hoard of mundane objects like buttons, paperclips, dried flowers, or even dice. This hoard powers a single spell – the last of your inheritance as a creature of magic. Together with your flight of other dragons, you will protect your homes, search for more hoard treasures, and keep yourselves secret from those who would exploit the last magic in the world.
Escape Comics: The Alien Ship
An escape room at your tabletop, The Alien Ship is a game of escaping and surviving an alien craft. Players will need to explore, solve problems, upgrade their tools, and work through the story to get out. Or, accept being stuck there forever.
Escape Comics: The Alien Ship is an immersive tabletop escape experience for 1-4 players that transforms a tactile graphic novel into a cinematic puzzle adventure. Players step aboard a massive alien vessel, taking on the role of captive heroes.
To navigate the story and fight for Earth’s survival, you will evolve your arsenal through a slick, progressive gear system. Upgrading your tools is the only way to crack deeply layered logic puzzles woven directly into the pages. With every page turn bringing you one step closer to saving humanity, this is the definitive tabletop escape. Clear your schedule. Your mission starts now.
Legendary Treasure Chests
Your dice, chits, minis, and all of your other gaming tchotchkes need a place to live. Why not in one of these fantasy-themed treasure chests? I’m always partial towards the mimic, but they are all beautiful, detailed, and entirely 3D printable.
Epic Props: Legendary Treasure Chests are real-life sized, fully thematic storage solutions designed for tabletop RPGs, card games, board games, cosplay, and creative hobbies. Each chest is designed to store your most valuable gaming essentials while looking like it belongs in a dungeon, a dragon hoard, or a forgotten vault.
