Rad Zone goes from Strength to Strength

As we approach the last 48 hours of the Rad Zone Kickstarter we should reflect on how much we have added to the game and what current, and potential, new backers will receive when the campaign finishes. This is of course all added to the original content.

1.       The Search Matrix has been expanded to give the player more search results

2.       12 more characters are available

3.       Characters can now have Companions in game

4.       Journeys to and from the city now have more options

5.       And the new narrative rumour mechanism will add to the story!


Key of course is that all backers will feel the benefits of these stretch goal milestones as they enhance the core rulebook. We must not forget as well that we have a core game that has flourished thanks to feedback on, and the interest in, the project. Kickstarter again has proven to be a motivational collaborative space supported by patrons who’s backing not only helps fund but also drive and design more original content.

As I write this, we are just about to pass 1000% funded. Thank you everybody! It is amazing! We now have another stretch goal £6000! And this will allow us to add even more art to the book and enhance the atmosphere further.

I still have big plans. This game will be supported beyond this Kickstarter campaign with free content as well as expansions later in the year. As we have done successfully with Dark Force Incursion we will continued to develop and support the game. You have bought not only into Rad Zone but its future as well!

Presenting Dark Force Incursion - A FREE Roll and Write One Player Game

It has been on my mind for a while now as the Corona-virus spreads across the world . What can I offer those who are at home and unable to partake in their usual gaming sessions because of isolation. How can a creative mind help alleviate the stress of boredom and worry? I have seen other roll and write games and thought that might be a great way of giving something to the community to these very ends.    Looking at what I have previously worked on under the DR Games and the hex tile has been a feature. I decide that I would try and use this format, combine it with a number mechanism and inject it with a narrative. This became a scenario that fuel the fire of the story...and Dark Force Incursion was born.   " Y o u r l a n d h a s b e e n i n v a d e d b y a p o w e r f u l D a r k F o r c e .

Board Game Stats Sheet

Board Game Stats Sheet Considering I’m creating a board game, and plan to do more in the future, I thought it wise to have a look at some of the stats of other successful board games. This table is just some of my research, but I thought it would be interesting to share here. These numbers are taken from Amazon and Board Game Geek (BBG) and so can vary and play time can stretch or shrink. Name BGG Ranking Amazon Price No Players Play time Ages Talisman 1397 £46.08 2-6 90mins 13+ Wingspan 25 £52.99 1-5 40-70mins 10+ Ticket to Ride 157 £30.95 2-5 30-60mins 8+ Settlers of Catan 355 £37.33 2-4 60mins 10+ Monopoly 18476 £21.99 2-6 60mins 8+ Dune 834 £40.0...

Kickstarter Notify Me Page…do we advertise it?

It has been months in the making but now finally our card game Trade Nation is on Kickstarter. Well, I mean the notify page is up so people can go there, click on the notify me button, and they will receive an email when the project goes live on Tuesday. Of course, this whole process brings a certain amount of trepidation. It has been interesting setting up the Preview page because it raises a number of questions about how you run a campaign. It’s great to be able to pick up the clicks before the actual campaign goes live, so as I said before people receive their notifications, but do you actually advertise the notify me page or do you wait until the actual campaign goes live? It is a bit of a conundrum. I have put out a Facebook advert pushing the notify page but have decided to wait on the rest of my advertising budget for when the page actually goes live. I really do not know if this is a mistake and I am very curious as to what the standard conversion rate is for notify me clic...
