Wow, that Canadian company masquerading as an American company sure had the most Canadian-accented Canadian in their video.

Valley Games, the Company with a Logo that looks like a spread Bum. "You help us, we may do the same to yours." Anyone else notice that Black Star'ish Logo has a similar theme? In Hindsight, they should've seen this coming from a guy named Rik with Bum related Logos.

Fun fact with the last one, it's not just the rulebook and logo that were plagiarised. By the end of the campaign people were finding the original 3d assets they'd ripped off for the renders of some of the minis too (one of the characters was a person's CG fanart of the protagonist of Prince of Persia: Sands of Time, for example) That said, I'm amazed we didn't get the Robotech campaign in this list.

A boardgame based on Candy Land and Risk would be awesome! I can see the Baron Licorice raising and army and conquering the gumdrop field and moving toward the candy cane forest.

Why hasn’t whoever owns the rights to jumanji made a VR board game? even a badass board game that utilizes our phones and tablets to do a decent AR board game with a beautiful board game that looks like the board and pieces that look like they came straight from the movie

Sometimes I find people who open a Kickstarter project not knowing what they actually want/need to do a bit scarier than those who do with an intention to exploit it but at least have enough knowledge on how things work.

Can't wait for the Juanji: Welcome to the Tropical Forest

"Sincerely, Sean Bury" I'M NOT SEAN MURRAY, I'M MY ORIGINAL CHARACTER-

Whenever I hear the Marvel vs. Capcom 2 character select music, I now automatically associate it with bad kickstarters.

I don't think anyone is ever going to top that time a Sun god commanded the creator to change the rules because it was TMI

These Kickstarter vids are one of my favorite series, please keep 'em coming.

Have you done failed Kickstarter Comic books yet?

Twas a pleasure to help, had a bunch of fun recording this dude \m/

there was an actual Parker Brothers made version of Jumanji. My mom bought it for my sister and I from Wal-Mart when i was a kid

I used to play an actual licensed Jumanji game I was really young. it was amazing, all right I’ll take a nostalgia goggles off for one second. it was all right, I would say that most kids nowadays probably wouldn’t be entertained by it but being a kid the 90s that boardgame along with all the other board games that took our parents 4 to 5 hours to set up the board game and The game only lasted about a half an hour and then we moved onto the next. Jumanji was just a plain simple cardboard box with a simple board. Their were so many board games back then. I think it would blow a lot of kids minds today.

I don't really wanna go into detail with this.

Wow. Super glad I caught this early! I love watching your videos. As always, great work!

Ohey! My parents are friends with the designers of Saloon Tycoon. Alas, I hadn't been able to join them during any of the playtests Rob ran, would've been neat to have gotten in on the ground floor of that. So to speak.

Holy crap, I thought that voice sounded like AlphaOmegaSin when I heard it, and I was right xD

i'm calling it now, 2019 edition of this video. jasco and angry joe wont have managed to produce the street fighter board game.

Any chance you could dig into the Lisa Frank Makeup Collaboration with Glamor Dolls on kickstarter? They've went silent, won't return emails and people haven't even got the digital rewards and we're a year overdue.

AlphaOmegaSin made the raging robot guy sounds like a super pissed off Big Bird.

I remember as a teenager, me and my friends, we tryed to make a board that would be between monopoly and Hotels in term of rules, but we never agreed on the name.

0:04 All together now... I WANNA TAKE YOU FOR A RIDE!!!!!

Great video as always! Love them a little bit extra when it's about board games too ! ;)

You should check the Heroquest 25 Anniversary campaign, that one could get a 15 minute video by its own. Problem is, is a Spain kickstarter so the majority of info probably is in spanish. It is way too long of a story to tell here, but boy it has everything. Even the kickstarter website (Lanzanos) scammed the backers after the original kickstarter creator scammed them. Legal actions has been taken in the past by individuals, but this month an association has been founded by backers to sue as a collective.

"I just took my meds now."

Wouldn't mind a list of your personal top 10 board game recommendations👍

The Sega CD Terminator song at 21:40 was such a nice touch. That soundtrack rocks!

Ok the Firefox copy is hilarious xD

Dang, I was listening to this in the background, heard the Shadow of the Colossus music, and it gave me a shiver. xD

Man, I haven't played a decent boardgame in years. I should get that to those.

Great video. I love the Terminator music near the end. Nice touch.

You should check out Meszoica, it was supposed to be a successor to Jurassic Park: Operation Genesis, however it ended up being a "dinosaur-sized disappointment." It went from 30$ early access to 99 cents.

I commented to help your algorithm. You said you didn't want to do the SGP board games but covered them anyways, that deserves at least a small bump.

From what it sounds like, what the guy trying to set up a Kickstarter for a Kickstarter sounds like he really needed is a bank loan. That's where most people go for a business startup.

Your self portraits are always so hit or miss. Like, either 'hey look at that cool-ass bloak' to 'OH MY GOD NO I DON'T WANT TO JOIN YOUR CHURCH'

Can I get that Raging Robot voice on loan? Going to have that kickstarter message as my voicemail message!

The ad for Key to the Kingdom in the beginning brought me back to my childhood

I was upset about the Cones of Dunshire kickstarter a few years ago. Such a good opportunity and popular following already, it's too bad they asked too much for their game.

where's my Juandi movie?

AOS was a pleasant surprise guest. was laughing my ass off

Glad to catch this with the notification.

The Theme Hospital music makes me so happy

Most of my tabletop game experiences with Kickstarter have been pretty pleasant. Exploding Kittens, Adorable Pandaring, Secret Hitler, not to mention the upcoming Binding of Issac and Trogdor games (though maybe I should knock on wood for that) but only two games really stood out to me as bad...the first is Big Angry Monsters, a Kickstarter campaign I was so interested in...I backed it twice...and it failed...twice. It's weird though 'cause it seemed like he was doing stuff right, it just didn't get any traction. The second if Thug Life, which had two campaigns. The first asked for a whopping $75,000. Naturally it failed, only raising about $11,000, but they did do a second one where they really revamped the game in a way that looks to be for the best, only asking for $5,000 and raised well over $13,000. Apparently that one is still going pretty smoothly, with an update as recent as two weeks ago that things are moving forward to...I guess that one isn't a failure, just sort of a neat story. Good luck on your eventual game, Slopes. I actually started making a campaign for a tabletop game once, but I never finished my alpha build of the game and didn't want to launch the project without some cool art or prototypes to show for it.

I pledged for 'Upfront.' Loved the original and was really looking forward to the new printing. $250 down the drain.

That Raging Robot comment was funny. "Happy fucker [sic] holidays Rik!"

"how the below average has fallen" Hot dang that's some spicy sass! Gonna use that one

I have to say, I always appreciate your music selection. I was happy to hear the old school Tomb Raider theme make an appearance... But i lost my mind when all the sudden I hear music from the old Westwood monopoly PC game. Who knew I wasn't the only one who remembers that game. I still got that shit, the best way to play monopoly to this day; and dat soundtrack is amazing. lol

Wow, two Jumanji rip-offs? That is unbelievably desperate. Also, cheers for using my music again. :)

Awesome video! Make sure you announce loud and strong when your game goes live (wallet waiting)!

Kickstarter has to do something about people running away with money

4:43 In space, not even a goat can be heard screaming.

If you do another board game-themed kickscammer video you should take a look into Soda Pop Miniatures aka Ninja Division. Starting with Super Dungeon Explore Legends, their Kickstarters have been a series of slow motion train wrecks.

I did get my add-on wooden dice cubes from the Space Goat: Evil Dead project. I assume they are legit. I back both projects. The IP from Evil Dead would be funny as a board game (if done well) and I was actually looking forward to experiencing the Terminator game's multiple timelines mechanic...

question, if someone had things about getting the rights, could they legally make a branded kickstarter, I.E, if I wanted to make a official jumanji or something else could I do it if I mentioned about getting licensing and the minimum goal had that cost in it?

8:24 Music from the 90s Westwood Monopoly PC game. Legendary.

I always wonder what the angry face with the party horn came from. It looks like you weren't having a great time. Lol Great video though!

nice video, i'll have to keep these fuckups in mind when i eventually launch a kickstarter for my own game. also whats the bullet hell game in your credits? looks good

Why doesn't this guy have his own TV Tropes page yet?

Can you please tell, what is a song playing in 17:23? I know it's assassin's creed melody/theme but it sounds a little different than i remembered.

Have you done one of these on the Robotech Kickstarter. That was an absolute crazy fiasco. Plus the history of those involved is also really interesting

12:29 Bruh, I know VA11-HALL-A music when I hear one!

What was the game shown at the very very beginning, right before you started talking about Saloon Tycoon? The one that involved a modular board and fantasy characters and lots of tokens and monsters?

I haven't seen the video yet, but I have to mention the ad I saw before I forget it. The was an ad for a Kickstarter over a board game called Lemmify. Considering now poorly animated it was, the irony was not lost on me. Thanks for the amusement, KZfaq's algorithms.

Completely forgot +AlphaOmegaSin was in this video right until I heard the word "Fuck". I've watched so many of his videos and his pronunciation of that word when he's being sarcastic, is so distinctive.

Hey Dan what editing software do you use? this stuff is super professional

This series is a very enjoyable one. I love it.

Take a look at "Darkness Sabotage" from Dethrone Games. It is another one that looks like it would fit in on this list. A really well put together campaign that has some great visuals and videos, even some great looking prototypes. There was some weird stuff at the start with the pricing, but the creator changed a few things and the campaign ended up being pretty massive at over $250,000. At first there were regular updates and the creator seemed to really be invested in making things great, but as time went by, the updates became less regular. Months would go by with nothing, then he would pop in, apologize for the delay and get back into posting nice looking updates. After nearly a year of this, the backers found out that the game had barely even begun production and many things were still in the design phase, leading him to admit that things had been delayed for probably at least another year. Over the course of the following year, updates again became sporadic and finally, there has yet to be a single post or even login from the creator in over 3 months. Numerous backers have tried to contact him and many have filed disputes with their credit card companies and government agencies to try and get their money back. Sucks too because it really looked like a cool game. I have around $400 invested in it myself that I will likely never see, sadly.

Weird use of Theme Hospital music, but hey, it works. lol

Your background music around 11:00 is definitely theme hospital right?! Awesome!

If that guy who wanted people to give him money so he could make a game company...If he spent HALF the giving actual details rather than "I can't give you more details" "I don't want to go into more detail at this time" or "I wish I could you more details", people MIGHT have actually given him some money (just not much for obvious reasons)

Saloon Tycoon is an awesome game, glad I backed it

Speaking of Duandji - I mean, Jumanji, I loved the actual board game that came out with the movie. I wish they still produced it!

I wonder what would happen if legislation was made that said crowdfunder sites could only take their cut after a suitably similar product to what was promised is released to backer. They don't get a penny from projects that hit their mark but didn't deliver. Impossible I know but I suspect oversight would increase

That terminator boardgame is basically the collectable card game just in a box....

Jumanji was awesome, I still remember playing it as a kid with my mom and sister.

Please make a video about the history of all the Army Men games.

7:29 I wonder if these guys ever actually had the Terminator/Evil Dead licenses to begin with.

Oh man I bought D Day dice in stores. I feel a little dirty knowing I was unknowingly part of something like that O_o

Ah you should have included the saga of Pirate Den, including the antics of Boyan Radokavich and Wil Wheaton. It has it all, back stabs, lies, theft, firings, moves, running away with money, ... and its why I no longer back games on Kickstarter.

>That last game God damn it, this series is called Kickscammers and I just watched the tail of 4 other failed game projects many of which were run by asshole and I know all this but stilll... That looks so cool and I waaaaant it.

Patreon shoutouts gettin pretty long! Congrats 😁

Did you ever look at the HeroQuest boardgame Kickstarter from 2014 (I think)? It ultimately went to a European crowd funder in Spain, I believe. The licensing issues were fascinating, and lead to be being suspended in short order. Given the nostalgia value of the original board game it could be a popular one to cover.

19:00 sounds like Sho from Persona 4 Arena Ultimax

What's the background music for the first game?

What are the top 5 failed kickstarters console games

Man, that Radiant logo. Still amazing after all these years.

With all that Theme Hospital music playing in the video and a fairly new game being close to release; It seems Daniel Ibbertson is pretty hyped for Two Point Hospital! :D I know I am! I'd probably end up buying more than 1 copy, one to enjoy on release and another if it goes portable!

Should do one about video games as well still waiting for my ghoast theory game they got kickstarter and additional funding they requested. The email I sent them last year was just total BS leading me back to the crowd funding site.

What's with the random Va-11 Hall-A music at 12:30?

OH! I called it! I knew that was him! I recognized that voice before! He made that voice before!

I actually did a bit of work on my own strategy board game. Maybe I should type up the rules with some of the cards and post it somewhere for feedback

"These board games didn't just die, they were murdered!"

I was watching some other failed Kickstarters video, and outta sheer coincidence, this popped up.

But there already is a board game using hexes that has strong sci-fi and roleplaying elements. It's called Twilight Imperium IV.

what is the game at 20:17 ?

No mention of Robotech RPG Tactics, which Palladium trainwrecked into oblivion?
