The Game Crafter Press Release - Update on our Village in a Box Kickstarter Experiment!

From the Game Crafter Website



We are now 44 hours into our Kickstarter campaign and it’s been amazing to see all of the support coming in for our indie game designers. So far our experiment is proving that people will buy bundles of indie games. The most popular reward tier right now is the Big Bundle of all 8 games and we don’t expect that to change by the end of the campaign. (granted, early Birds are limited to 50 backers)

Here’s what we have been able to accomplish so far in just 44 hours:
  • 186 Backers
  • $8,111 in funding (534% funding)
  • #1 on Kicktraq’s Hot List for about 28 hours, currently in #4 position

FUNDED STRETCH GOALS
$2,500 - Double Sided Tiles (TGC community stretch goal)
$5,000 - Water in a Box (Village in a Box expansion)
$6,000 - Large Square Chits (TGC community stretch goal)
$7,000 - Large Hex Chits (TGC community stretch goal)

ADDITIONAL STRETCH GOALS
200+ Copies Sold - (When each game sells more than 200 copies, the box will be upgraded to thicker/nicer stock)

$10,000 - People in a Box (Village in a Box Expansion)

Overall, we think this has been a big success and we’re excited to see how it plays out. The indie board game community has really provided a lot of goodwill and support towards this project and it’s a huge help. We’d like to thank everyone for helping us spread the word and for supporting indie board games! Stay tuned for other updates in the days ahead.
