No and No.
Though Lizzy (who forced* me to back the game) and DaveB expressed interest if I recall correctly.
I haven't even looked at the starting characters yet...

(*OK, Lizzy didn't force me, she merely suggested backing it was a good idea and I am very easily swayed where games are concerned!)


I'm definitely interested... if we can sort a when Smile

That's pretty heavy! I am still very keen to join that campaign when you are ready to start.

Thoughtful of them to give people a workout carrying it before sitting stationary for hours.

Ian and I have a spare place in our Gloomhaven campaign if anyone is interested in joining us? We’re only a few missions in and we can fill you in on the story so far (we even have a campaign log doc). We play mostly on Tuesdays, about once a month or so.

We find out who's been borrowing without notification/nicking the games from the current collection... then the library can reopen.

I'm not convinced by this one, looks a lot of money for not much but they are Sheffield based so perhaps might be persuaded to deliver?: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1519152481/air-flix/description

They had it at the Expo. Wasn't able to play but watched a few rounds, looked like lots of fun.

Well they don’t need to book it in or anything really. If they wanna put it on the forum, twitter or Facebook just to say what day it’s happening then it might get more attention.

Neta-Tanka looks good, a worker placement which relies on actions being triggered earlier in the round and which can be accessed by other players once activated. I don't like these unknown shipping costs though so I might wait until general release, or look at their previous game, Outlive.

Looks light and very familiar - wasn't it an iOS game a few years back?

This was at expo wasn't it? I think it was the game where a lady flipped out at her partner as we walked past and wiped her board. Only reason I remember it!

Yeah it’s an adaptation of an app.
I do vaguely remember seeing it at the expo. It looks a bit like galaxy trucker in the way it plays

I'd be game to give it a go, but I can't justify the money to back it atm!

I'm tempted, I do like the app game and have played it a lot.

Looking at the game it looks a bit simplistic at the basic version, you would need the expansion to make it more interesting.

Just making sure no one has backed Overturn. Looks like it’s a massive scam!

This looks nice but are there 6 of you who want to get together and get it the group discount?
