Random question and I didn't see it mentioned before but is anyone following Elementary My Dear Watson. Looks like a fun game minus all the possible backer issue that is going on.

holisk: all the possible backer issue that is going on.
My new favorite conspiracy theory: ouya is behind it. They don't want their console and initiative to look like complete failures that they are.

edit: oh my, do the comments deliver!

@Ben. So because my name is Emily and I have Emily Deschanel's photograph, I am being discounted as a person?
Awesome!

(To clarify for those who aren't watching; the dummy accounts were created in alphabetical order with the avatars grabbed off Google Images. After living, breathing people have pointed that out, there was a wave of renaming, gender reassignment, and backing one or two other projects. No one moved, though.)

Verdict: buy it when it gets released on your platform. The rewards suck anyway.

Not the slightest hint of a DRM-free release so far... On the other hand - that's the most hip-swinging character I have ever seen *_*...

Naming a planet isn't the same as actual content. Also, it's never stated that non-backers wouldn't get the backer-named planets.

"NANOCOMPOSITE - Name a planet in the Epsilon Eridani star system! Within reason."

So no win yet :P

Whoops, embarrassing typo. It's $2000, for access to the personal suite, available to the lucky six who are fast enough to grab that tier, the five 5k pledges, and the single 10k. (Waitaminute 2000? That changes everything, pledging right now.) $1000, $500, $250, $100 and $50 tiers each grant exclusive content limited to backers at that and upper tiers. So, still a win, but marred by puking on the pedestal.

Sunless Sea

by Failbetter Games


Trade in silk and souls. Battle sea-beasts, pirates, sentient coral. Explore a map that changes every time you play. Discover islands. Establish staging posts. Win fame as a navigator. Learn the stories of your crew: assist them, seduce them or consume them as you see fit.

Sunless Sea is a game of exploration, survival and loneliness set in the award-winning Victorian Gothic universe of Fallen London. Take the helm of your customised steamship and set sail for the unknown! Light and darkness are your greatest allies, but a stout set of cannon and a gunnery officer with a grudge will come in useful too.

And Sunless Sea is a game of stories; the dark pasts of your crew, the hidden coves of the soul-smugglers, the tentacled nemesis that you chased from Hunter’s Keep to the shores of the Elder Continent.


Since I am unable to post links anyone who is curious will have to find their kickstarter on their own.

This is the first I've heard of this project, but here's another probable scam scenario on Kickstarter: Planet Pioneer.

Apart from the lack of a video, the project seemed pretty reliable (free PnP version, third party previews, BGG entry, clear vision), but from what I've seen in the comments and BGG thread, it's unlikely the developer will fulfill his end of the bargain. I will have to be more cautious about adding tabletop games to the list in future.
