Monolith wanted $80,000 for a Conan The Barbarian board game. Theyāre on track to get over $1 million
With 23 days left to go on a Kickstarter campaign, which wants to bring the writings of Robert E. Howard to a co-op/adversarial board game setting, the project has already raised over $700,000.
The game, simply called Conan, sounds simple enough. 1-4 players team up as Conan and his āfellow adventurersā, and have to do battle against another player who assumes the role of the āoverlordā, who controls āhordes of savage tribesmen, no-good lowlifes and undead minionsā.
Both the adventurers and the overlordās armies are represented by badass plastic miniatures.
Itās not a cheap game ā the lowest tier thatāll get you a copy is $90 ā but seeing as you get so much stuff with it (miniatures, two game boards) that seems pretty reasonable, at least in terms of board game pricing.
