Title: Labyrinth + Dark Crystal + HeroQuest = MazeQuest
Post by: Arthadan on 11 December 2014, 10:45:54 PM
Upcoming Spanish board game. Four factions with four members each trying to escape from a labyrinth (not The Labyrinth (TM), mind you  :P )

Crowfunding will begin in mid December in the Spanish platform Verkami.

Looks like it's in Spanish, wonder if they'll be an English version?

The minis & detail work on the walls have a decided Froud-like style...VERY COOL in my opinion. GREAT STUFF!

Tagging this for later. It does look very atmospheric but it looks like it'll be expensive with all thoe resin/plastic walls!

Nice! But as above interested if there will be an english version and the price of the resin/plastic version as on the blog there also seems to be a flat cartonboard version with resin/ plastic doors.

Last update I have is an emailed newsletter from 14 July 2012. It says it'll be hitting Kickstarter soon.

Her shop has no products for it:

Hopefully something - it was/is such a nice project (as this one seems to be).

I like the look of their two-tier dungeon pieces. Anyone got any of them and care to comment on quality and cost (no price was listed)?

They made a strange decision not to make the dungeon walls available in the campaign so it is limited to the board with 3D doors. Also there is no "minis only" pledge despite the minis being the only difference between the 2 core pledges.

The enthusiasm around the gaming fora here has pretty much died, as witness the very low level of support. Great idea and wonderful looking product but very poor fundraising campaign.

When I saw this project I was SO excited, I saved a little money and joined Verkami just so I could back the project. When the project was released I was little hesitant and did not back it right away. I wrote a letter to the project creator and waited. When I got the news that the dungeon or Maze would not be included with the project I just could not back it. The minis are nice and the concept is great, but without the dungeon/maze I just could not do it. I would want the whole package shipped in one order, not half or two thirds of the game. That two-tired dungeon is so awesome too. Really unfortunate, guess that is way way things go sometimes.
