2020 was tough! Clearly, it is the perfect subject matter for a family friendly game? Tragedy raged around the world and like many, my wife and I was in lockdown searching for things to do with our unexpected free time. Gardening wasn’t an option because the things I plant don’t grow. Maybe I could learn a new language? I think we all know that wouldn’t quite work out. Netflix was fun for a while but it wasn’t a long term solution. What we needed was a project.
The solution – develop a card game themed around our experiences. What followed was hundreds/thousands of hours poured into game development, design, illustration, graphics, websites, and playing. Finally, the game is on Kickstarter and nearly funded. Plus we have been left with loads of illustrations that sum up lockdown life. Drawn by my wife and colored by me. These are some of our favorite illustrations (although not all of them made it into the game).
You can check out the Kickstarter and order the game now. If you back us before 3rd December we’ll even let you have a version of the game in time for Christmas.
