Prepare to endure and survive in a whole new way, because we here at Naughty Dog are thrilled to announce that The Last of Us is coming to the world of tabletop gaming courtesy of Themeborne in The Last of Us: Escape the Dark.
As tabletop gaming fans may already know, Themeborne’s Escape the Dark series values cooperative and easy-to-understand gameplay. Themeborne’s games include some seriously beautiful black-and-white illustrated chapter cards that players work to resolve together, overcoming challenges and creating new paths each time they play so no two games are quite alike.
Having previously published Escape the Dark Castle and Escape the Dark Sector, Themeborne’s award-winning work has included multiple expansions for their base games, as well as successful Kickstarter campaigns behind them.
To learn much more about this fascinating take on Joel and Ellie’s adventure, look forward to The Last of Us: Escape the Dark’s Kickstarter campaign, which will be live on November 8, and will offer fans not only a deeper look at the game but also the chance to get their hands on an exclusive collector’s edition of the game. We hope you’ll check it out and be as excited as we are about what the Themeborne team has in store.
With Themeborne’s penchant for bold art and approachable game design going into the development of The Last of Us: Escape the Dark, we can’t wait to see how they realize the world of The Last of Us in a brand-new way.
Ich hätte ja gerne die Collector’s Edition, aber das Artwork der Standard Edition gefällt mir mehr
Edit: Aus den Kommentaren:
COVER ART - Thanks for sharing your thoughts on which you prefer. If we reach a sufficient level of funding, it may be possible to offer backers of the Collector’s Edition the choice between the two styles, or a slip cover so everyone gets both. A poll/vote is also an interesting idea, but there is plenty of time for that when we have more people on board. We’ll explore our options and revisit this topic with you all later in the campaign. Thanks!
Rein vom Thema ist es super interessant. Die Spielmechaniken (das Wichtigste), die grafische Gestaltung des Spielbretts sowie der Look haben für mich leider den Charme einer Excel-Tabelle. Der schwarz-weiß Look mag zwar super zu Last of Us passen, irgendwie wirkt es dadurch aber cheap. Spielen würd ich es dennoch gern.
Aber Kickstarter ist für mich eh gestorben. Hab letztens bei Marvel United insgesamt 60% des Finanzierungsbeitrags für Steuern und Lieferung bezahlt, das krieg ich im Laden wesentlich billiger und die ganzen Stretch Goals spielt man eh nie.
Ja, Kickstarter kann man mittlerweile echt meistens vergessen. Gestiege Produktions- und Lieferkosten, der starke Dollar, das gestopfte VAT-Schlupfloch - alles in allem steigt man da eig. immer mit Retail besser aus.
Ich hab letztens wieder eins gebacked, weil ich das Projekt recht sympathisch fand und die Entwickler direkter unterstützen wollte. Dann noch in der Spieleschmiede ein Spiel, das wars heuer mit Pledges.
Schade, sind schon immer wieder coole Sachen dabei, so wie eben hier das Last of Us-Spiel.
