SHOULD YOU BACK/BUY? Mindbug: Battlefruit Kingdom & A.I.Pokalypse Reviews!

#LiegeOfGames #boardgames
Two upcoming crowdfunding card driven head to head games with completely different approaches.
First is Mindbug from NerdLab Games, you may have seen it around previously. Using your Mindbug card to overcome, outmaneuver and outplay your opponent and knocking them out before they do the same to you via 1 action per turn at a time. When all the cards are overpowered, are any? And can it still stay fun? The answer is definitely yes.
Second up is A.I. Pokalypse, an "auto-battler" head to head situation of a different type. Draw your cards, position them, arms them, and then let the cards fall how they may, with some mitigation of course when everyone battles everyone at the same time!

I totally backed AI Pokalypse, it was cheap and looked awesome. Loved the art and concept of gameplay. Fuck it, I am in.

“No whammy!” I grew up in the 80’s watching the original version with my dad. We’d watch this every weekday. Such good memories.

14:10 A correction: the rulebook states: "Any player who would lose a health point in Sudden Death and has no cards left on their health point stack is eliminated from the game and loses."
Sudden Death means that after it activates players can get eliminated form the game if their health is reduced to 0. It basically saves players form dying the first time while signaling the activation of player elimination.

I like the look and gameplay (I think) of A.I. Pokalypse. Just backed it!

I watched Press Your Luck too, so I do indeed remember the Whammies!

Roguebook is a lot of fun because of the way it mixes up the slay the spire formula. Glad to see this is getting some attention.

Minbug - when your card has been stolen, you play another card. I belive that you are saying that person stealing the card is also playing his turn - I've played that whay for a while and it is a killer combo every time. And it's against the rules ;)

No whammy! Press Your Luck. 😂 Anyone else catch the “Rock Me Amadeus” reference? That one took me back. Thanks!

Don't think some folks are going to be happy with you revealing cards from Mindbug that was supposed to be exclusive for them to preview on their sites and channels.
