MayDay Games

Guess where your opponents will go for fish, and try to avoid them or steal fish right out from under them in this quick little kitten-filled pirate game.

Social deduction has never been more adorable than it is this month with a panda-themed game hitting Kickstarter. Also, a dexterity game about flipping pancakes and a chip stacking game that blends strategy and luck.

Las Vegas. It’s the home of some of the most amazing and awe-inspiring venues known to humankind. It’s also a gathering place for people of all walks of life to enjoy all kinds of entertainment, from the risqué and bizarre to world-class music and artistry.

From auctions to social deduction, from bears to food trucks, there’s not only a lot of variety in mechanics this month, there are a lot of fun themes as well.

From gods battling it out through rock and roll, to a game that only costs a dollar, this month’s Kickstarters have a little something of everything.

Fantasy takes center stage this month, with magical creatures inhabiting dungeons, attacking cities, and even playing a few rounds of baseball.

This is a month for fun thematic mechanics such as spiders joining cults and Krakens patrolling the oceans. Also, this month brings us the campaign for Tabletopia, a digital platform for playing and publishing board games.

This is the month for lovers of card games and deck builders or just people who love some awesome animal artwork in their games.

The final month of 2014 brings to Kickstarter a fun party game, a dice adaptation of a popular board game, strategy games for the whole family, and even one game designed by kids.

This month brings real time fun (five minutes to save the earth from meteors!) and interesting components (a deck of cards printed on dice) as well as great artwork and mechanics. It’s a strong month for Kickstarter games, with unique ideas and a lot of independent publishers.
