2016 Kickstarter Game Update, Week 10

Game I Backed:
Darkest Night: Second Edition

Status: Funded

This is a cooperative fantasy game in which players are heroes in a realm nearly submerged in darkness by an evil Necromancer, and they must travel the map to find items to defeat him. I was interested in it before, but I never bought it because the rules required the use of 4 heroes, regardless of player number. The new version not only includes a lot of expansion content, it has updated rules that allows for different numbers of heroes.

Game I Viewed:
This War of Mine

Status: Funded

This cooperative game is about the non-combatants during a war, and how they must struggle to survive amid many hardships. Apparently it is based on a popular video game. I think the idea of the game is fascinating, but I doubt anyone in my game groups would be willing to play it due to the dark theme.
