Funding for Season 2
Sentinels of the Multiverse is an interesting game for a couple of reasons. For one, cooperative card games can be a good time no matter the subject matter; just chill with some friends while you see if you can collectively best an inanimate object. I’m far from the biggest comic book fan out there, but I still had fun when I played it.
For two, it’s funny to see how it’s able to kinda-sorta include any comic book characters it wants, changing the names and appearances (only slightly in most cases), but leaving abilities intact so everybody knows who they’re supposed to be. Sure, we’ll never see Batman working together with Thor since they’re owned by competing publishers, but we can have The Wraith and Ra: The Sun God on a team fighting for justice. Wink.
The digital version of Sentinels of the Multiverse has been out for a few years now, and it has even seen the release of its first season of add-on content. In that time, the card game designer Greater Than Games has released even more expansions, so the video game developer Handelabra Games is looking for funding to bring it up to date. Season 2 will include Villains of the Multiverse expansion (among others), which adds in a greater variety of goons to pummel.
Handelabra has taken to Kickstarter for its funding. It is seeking $80,000 as its base funding goal, with planned-but-currently-unannounced stretch goals in the pipeline.
