ADVERTISEMENT: Survivalist - An Epic New Survival Board Game!

You're bruised, cold, and empty-handed in the wilderness. You've got eight nights to survive. It's still a long way to the top. This is Survivalist, a brutal competitive survival board game coming out on Kickstarter. Survivalist blends worker placement with push your luck mechanics where every turn is filled with tension.

The art is fantastic. It's gritty, and it gives you the impression that things are going to get rough. On your turn, you place your survivalist to do an action. But in the wilderness, every action comes with a risk of injury, represented by this bag. Every time you reach into the bag, you win like you've tried to grab some firewood, but instead found a very angry snake.

>> You have to gather materials and craft what you need to survive, but the environment is harsh, and the reaper is whispering in your ear. The drum is constant. At the start, you're all cheering each other on until the resources and the sunlight start running out. Then it's everyone for themselves as you try to make one final deadly trek over the mountain to safety.

If you got what it takes to survive, check Survival Lease on Kickstarter. And if you want it even more immersive, thinky, and deadly, check out the deluxe version and shiver at the sound of hungry wolves howling just over the ridge. >> Night has fallen. Your faithful hound is barking. It's time to go.
