“Slay the Spire: The Board Game Japanese version” crowdfunding achieved
Kenville Co., Ltd. started the “Slay the Spire: The Board Game Japanese version” project on January 10, 2023 (Tuesday) at 18:00 on the crowdfunding service “Kibidango”. The target amount of 5 million yen was achieved on the same day, and domestic distribution has been confirmed.
The work is the Japanese version of “Slay the Spire: The Board Game”, which collected 3.9 million dollars (about 530 million yen) through overseas crowdfunding. As a board game based on a popular digital game, it has attracted attention from both domestic digital game fans and board game fans.
The original is “Slay the Spire”, a single-player adventure digital card game (distributed on Steam / Nintendo Switch, etc.) in which you defeat enemies along the way, strengthen your deck, and aim to defeat the final boss. Overwhelmingly addictive and has many fans.
“Slay the Spire: The Board Game” is a cooperative game that can be enjoyed by up to four people while faithfully reproducing that system. Let’s capture the stage while consulting at the party in the tension of an immediate game over if even one of your friends collapses.
From January 10, 2023 (Tuesday) 18:00 to January 30, 2023 (Monday) 22:00, we will accept support for the Japanese version on the crowdfunding site “Kibidango”. Three plans with different contents (16,500 yen / 22,000 yen / 34,500 yen, each including tax and shipping) are under development, and additional contents will be lifted depending on the total amount of support.
