Before we get into this month's Kickstarter, some news:
Most of you should have your September packages as they have almost all made it out the door. So many delays but it's mostly behind us. If you don't already have it, you should have it close to the weekend.
October postcards are in, we're just waiting for the rest of the package to arrive. Hopefully they'll all be here in 2 weeks and heading out the door. October features a little baseball-ish (you'll see) micro game in the $10+ packages.
Onto this month's Wallet Game!
As part of your rewards here, each month you get a discount on each of our Kickstarter Wallet Games OR any Wallet Game in our current library.
The November Kickstarter Wallet game is Universal Rule, a 3-5 player 4X game by Chip Beauvais (who you may know from Smoke &a Mirrors).
Deep in the Pocket Universe, the balance of power is shifting. Seventeen newly discovered planets are being colonized and tapped for crucial resources. Shifting alliances and stacks of galactic credits influence battles for control. Can you claim Universal Rule in this 4x wallet game from Button Shy?
In Universal Rule, players battle for control of the universe in this pocket sized 4X style game. You can colonize new planets, improve upon those planets, gain credits based off of the resources that the planet produces, or attempt to destroy other planets that threaten your existence. Other players can follow, but at a cost. The first player to show their true dominance through victory points will win the game.
Universal Rule is a 3-5 player game designed by Chip Beauvais with art by Sara Beauvais and layout by Jason Washburn (of Talon Strikes Studios). Gameplay lasts 30-45 minutes and is recommended for ages 12 and up.
