+1 for a terrorscape playthrough or (more likely) review!

Cancelled my Sirens pledge today. The longer the campaign progressed, I got an overwhelming feeling that game is more of an ambitious vision than anywhere close to a fleshed out game, and the prototype being really not more than a very specific and limited showcase of ambition. Oh, the weird ceiling perspective is, well, weird. And unsettling.

Seeing the ceiling in so much of the video is strange for sure. Almost looks like a green screen. The textured ceiling seems too close to your head. Maybe use the game table set up or sit down? Not sure how to fix seeing the ceiling so much in the shot. My standing desk, I put sliders under the legs so I can move it. Maybe you could put a small Kalax next to the desk for a backdrop and move the desk temporarily?

Already backed Deep Regrets and really looking forward to it!

I love your videos but I don’t like how it looks like your head is about to go through the ceiling

Thanks for the roundup Alex, always catch these to back or not to back ones. Had my eye on DC United but it seems that Crowdfunding board games is getting impossible for rest of world backers when looking at $148 shipping and it's not just CMON. I have followed other games as well. I'm glad to see that at least the prices for the US have gone down. Will catch it when it goes to retail, just a pity to loose out on the exclusives. But as always I appreciate the content Alex

My secret wish is that the "big" games wouldn't get most of the minutes coverage. To which you can say "But those big games are also genuinely the best", to which I can say that's fair but also they don't actually needs crowdfunding then. So my secret wish remains for smaller creators get more of the "hype".

Dang you grew an extra foot at least, you're almost bumping the ceiling! What's your secret?

Being sold out shows that your cult of the now was SPOT ON! Good work! :)

Deep Regrets looked great. But I deeply regret that they ran a pre-pledge campaign, so I will not be backing it.

As a horror fan, Terrorscape is one I was interested in the first time, but waited to see what reviews would be from non-KZfaqrs. It's been very positive for the most part, so it's one I'm more comfortable backing now that we know it's good. Good games often return for a second run or expansion, especially when it's a smaller publisher.

I backed Deep Regrets. It looks amazing and i think this is a game my friends and i will enjoy.

Thanks for the video. As a Christian hearing it pronounced the same way for so long, it was interesting to hear you say "Ezra & Nehemiah". 😎

Back in 2022 when Queen launched these games for the first time, I passed b/c of the price point. I saved a note that if I found any of the games I liked for under $95 then I would have "won" not backing the campaign. Two years later I can get all the games again, plus an expansion (camels), plus metal coins, plus the english versions of cards for two of the games for $285 + $50 shipping = $335. Now, I don't want NY, or the metal coins, so I could sell those together, and then "make money". If I did the add-on $5 tier, H $79, A $79, M $89, Camels $49, shipping $22 = $323. Although on the shipping chart it lists "single game" for $22, so if I got 3 games plus the ex is that $66 or $88, either of which is more than the $50 shipping for the all in bundle.

I think ill be playing deep regrets with my family a lot because its less complex

I know you did a video on Sirens but I really have a hard time getting a sense of whether it would be for me.

While I would absolutely love to get my hands on Terrorscape...the logistics they are using makes shipping to my 3rd world corner country absolutely absurd. Will hope that sometime in the future I can pick up a cheap-sih copy 2nd hand...in 5 years.

I backed terrorscape the last time it was up, money well spent, my kids enjoy playing it and adults as well, its easy to play, clever mechanics and looks great on the table. I have gone back for the expansion, the box and other bits and pieces. I didn't want to get the sundropped stuff as when I got my pledge and played it a few times I loved it so much I spent my week off at Christmas painting it all up, so will do the same when the expansions turned up. Be interesting to see your thoughts on it.

I really wanted to like brink because I love Moonrakers, but Shelfside's review turned me off due to too much randomness for a worker placement. The exploring doesn't seem to fit as well with how tight the game is since it's only 3 rounds. So the amount of luck seems to outweigh the strategy of the game. They get a dollar from me to access the pledge manager for the Moonrakers content though.

Oof. I backed deep regrets but looking at retailers only getting it for 20 pounds and the early bird + shipping being about 50 pounds (though we get the expansion for free) I wonder if it is going to be cheaper in store...because I can't imagine retail charging an addition 30 pounds on their cost

shipping for Terrorscape is very expensive for some regions.

Hello Alex! Did you mention the Echos of Emperors in any To Back Or Not To Back series? If not but you see it, could you shortly comment this campaign?

18:29 ...Cats! HOOO!!!

As a big Marvel fan and also a fan of Marvel United, I'm envious about the treatment DC is getting. I wish it was the other way around, as I almost don't care about DC at all..

Can you do a segment to talk about how much shipping is too much to pay? I am keen on terrorscape but the shipping + vat is too high for Australia

Are you planning on including Kemet Rise of the Gods in a future "back or not-video"? Or is this not to come due to your extra video covering it?

I will be all-in on DC United at the end of the campaign. It is unfortunate that CMON absorbs almost all of my boardgaming budget. It does mean I get other top games at much lower prices as they're a couple years old once I look to buy them.

Not a huge DC guy but I’m getting the titans pledge and which ever expansion that has Hal Jordan and Harley Quinn

Deep regrets would be something I was keen on, but the grosteque art wasn’t for me

I'm curious what you think about the KS campaign of the game “Monster Kill”, it looks mighty interesting!

Descriptor + Gender was a thing very much as part of the Zeitgeist and remarked about in Legion. I am curious if you research Power Girl, aka Supergirl from another dimension, and the history of her .....ummm.... appearance with Wally Wood as the artist.

I'm backing DC United, but did not back or buy any of the Marvel United stuff. I wonder how many are like me... From what I've read, it seems that CMON has iterated the United series by adding new mechanics with each version, much like they did with their Zombicide series.

I don't know how anyone can back Queen games. They are just ridiculous.

Yes for terrorscape review! Any chance for a judgement call when this can be played with kids (agewise)?

Good video, thanks Alex.

Deep Regrets is just Dredge but as a Card game. Some info is Dredge is a 2023 indie game that was really popular for combining fishing with Cthulhu Mythos.

Very much not a fan of the new camera set-up. What is this... a house for ants?

What would you recomend as the entry point for 20 Strong - not sure how much of it to get / whether to get the orrigional or tanglewood.

I'm a Batman man... wait

I already backed veiled fate with the expansion. How much different is terrorscape?

Cult of the maybe later

I've heard that D-Cup lights are coming back into style...

a Wroth 20 Strong deck plz

I have 4 kids and have the exact same problem lol

I wouldnt really say that its a universe from manny for 20 strong becsuse they are just clearly stolen ideas from little red riding hood, alice in wonderland and snow white

Deep regrets looks great, too bad they used a 1 dollar pre pledge, so that's a pass

Queen Games. Best company ever. 🐖 ✈️

Getting old
