Wow! The backers have done it! The Kickstarter Campaign for Return to Ravingspire has come to a close and its been a great success! Thank you for all your support of Vorpal Chainsword Games and Ravingspire. We truly appreciate it! So what’s next? We’ll immediately start getting all the wooden book boxes crafted so they’ll be ready when the rest of the printed materials arrive. Soon you’ll be getting a backer survey to give us your preferred mailing address so we can get these shipped out to you when they are ready. Of course if anything weird comes up (i.e. moving, etc) don’t hesitate to contact me here on Kickstarter. And one more thing. The backers got us so close to the engraved dice stretch goal that we discussed it, crunched the numbers, and have agreed to go ahead and put up the rest of the dice mould cost ourselves to get engraved dice into the game! We want this game to be one of the coolest on your shelf, and if ponying up a little more out of our own pockets will get it done, then that’s what we’re gonna do. Each character’s name and the symbol on every face will be engraved and painted. This game will really now stand apart, and we have our backers on Kickstarter to thank! If you want to discuss more Ravingspire outside of Kickstarter, then know that we have a Ravingspire Facebook page as well as a Ravingspire section on the Vorpal Chainsword Games website, you can find me at my blog on vorpalchainsword.com and vorpalchainsword.blogspot.com, and of course on Boardgamegeek.com. Finally, you can always reach us here on Kickstarter.
We’re greatly looking forward to you exploring the Tower of Madness (and its various dimensions) yourselves! Game on! Cory We’re down to the last 24 hours in the campaign, and closer than ever to unlocking even more Tower Adventures and the Engraved Dice! I’m really looking forward to getting these out to our backers before the end of the year. I know that there are some mega-huge monster-smashing boardgame kickstarters out there these days, and the fact that some folks took some time out to support us and our game is really, really great. I hope a year from now they’ll glance over at this rare super-dope embossed-leatherette wizard’s tome sitting on your bookshelf and think: “Man, that game is so weird and cool and unique... I need to play it again. Game night!”
I also know I haven't blogged nearly enough about other gaming since this Kickstarter began, so I'm also looking forward to having a normal gaming schedule again. Its hard to play games just for fun when you're tied up in your own kickstarter! As promised, here is a full game playthrough of Return to Ravingspire! We explore dark corridors, fight grisly Foes, and explore dimensions beyond space-time in this complete two-Hero playthrough of Return to Ravingspire. And in case you missed it, here's the HOW TO PLAY video: We've done it! Florence Haymaker, mild-mannered Village Hero will join your Quest in Return to Ravingspire! At this level backers get another card-stock Hero Battlemat and Hero Vigor card, as well as two new custom dice added to Return to Ravingspire. Thank you all for your support and spreading the word of the campaign! At first glance, one couldn't be blamed for considering Florence all brawn and no brains, but when it comes to utilizing Weapons in creative ways Florence has no equal. Florence Haymaker can discard any Weapon card during a round to generate two Vorpal! These he can spend as any attribute he chooses, allowing him to take down those pesky mages and rogues with sheer brute power. Sometimes the best offense is more offense! At the next stretch level we can add five additional Oversized Tower Encounter Cards, themed toward the Fallen Heroes from the original Ravingspire boardgame. Encounter your old friend Garsome Cinderheart, once an ally but now blacksmithing weapons for his new Dark Lord, or help noble rogue Shayla Nimblenook steal some Loot from the Dark Tower.
Please keep spreading the word and help us make the game even more epic! Thanks and Game On! Cory Kickstarter campaign is still going strong for our new game: Return to Ravingspire. We just hit the halfway point in the Kickstarter campaign and we've almost unlocked a sixth playable character. Every new backer helps us put even more cool stuff in the box! Also, I was watching some daytime TV yesterday and ran across this ad that really resonated with me... |
