STORY WAR: The Storytelling Party Game


Sometimes I take notice of Kickstarters a little late into their life, but often times they're still completely worth donating towards. Story War is one of those times.

Taking a page from Apples to Apples, Story War pits teams against each other in-order to create a story filled to the brim with pop-culture references. I'm a huge fan of tabletop games, and this is definitely right up my alley, especially after seeing the game studio's original take on each pop-culture entry.

Yes, the goal has already been reached, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't think about donating. For only $25 you're getting a copy of the basic game which looks to be totally worth it. If you're interested in donating or picking up the game head over to the Story War Kickstarter page.

Worth Checking Out : The Rivet Wars Kickstarter

(Via)
I've always admired the more complex tabletop games, having had my fair share of Warhammer/40k fanatics as friends, yet was intimidated by the needs for purchasing Codexes for rules, painting and the steep cost of maintaining such a hobby. If you fall into that category, it looks like the folks over at CoolMiniOrNot might have a solution, a more accessible version of the tabletop game, mixed with an adorable, chunky art style reminiscent of Nintendo's fantastic Advance Wars series.

Rivet Wars' art style translated fantastically into miniature form, courtesy of Ted Terranova's twisted imagination and experience as a concept artist at companies like Big Huge Games and Sony Online. Created from the ground up to offer a more streamlined experience for more casual players, I'd definitely recommend checking this out. Check out the Kickstarter pitch video below!
