Back or Brick: Chiseled: A Deck-Sculpting Game
Pros:
– I like action selection
– Cheap price point
– Variability in game play depending on actions available
– Solo Play
– Interesting theme
Cons:
– Aesthetically only okay
– Previously failed
– Limited rules description
Thoughts on the Campaign Page:
They’ve only sent it out to one or two people to preview for what basically is a card game. they should have been able to prototype a few more copies and it into more hands. I understand that they probably don’t want to pay for more previews for the game, but that would help.
I also think that it looks okay, but not great aesthetically. It’s more that it’s not just my style, though.
But the big thing for me is the rules. Yes, it has a solo variant and that’s cool. I feel like their description is a little bit simple, I would love to see examples of more cards than they’ve provided, because I think that the concept of the game and the mechanics combined with theme could be really cool, but while I have a general idea of how to play, I don’t have a full picture of some of the mechanics of the game or how some of the different rotating abilities will work.
Verdict:
I hope that this game funds, and I hope that it makes it to retail. I want to get my hands on this game and see how it plays, because the idea for it is cool. If it was a company that I knew more about, I think that I’d be more interested in backing it.
