From the Game Crafter Website
Bounty! is a quick to learn, easy to play card game
for 3 or 4 players whose goal is to collect the most gold and prevent
their opponents from doing the same. The game design is modeled on the
Age of Sail, and players are admirals of different seafaring nations
each commanding a small fleet of ships exploring the ocean, and
competing over trade routes with the far east.
This is designer Josh Perry’s first foray into the game design world,
and he is looking to produce a minimal game with as little overhead as
possible in order to provide a cheap game. The
indiegogo campaign is
designed to raise funds to pay for some simple art, as well as purchase
copies of the game for all backers. For Bounty! success is measured by
getting the game into the world, not by how much profit it can make.
This fact, as well as the design choices make it easy to provide the
game at a low cost. The entire game can be purchased through Indiegogo
(shipping and all) for just $15, cheaper than most games on the market.
