    Kickstarter Picks: Pinball Arcade – The Twilight Zone

    By

    There are few recreational activities as whimsical as that of pinball. It's a physical endurance battle between you and the machine. On the best tables, an array of electrical lights, stories, and modifiers was enough to keep you going for hours. One such table, The Twilight Zone, is widely considered to be one of the best physical pinball tables of all time.

    Kickstarter Picks: Tex Murphy – Project Fedora

    By

    It's pretty uncanny how the classic adventure game genre went from dead to thriving in a matter of months. Starting off the success of DoubleFine's promise to bring back classic adventures with Double Fine Adventure (and grabbing nearly $3.5 million dollars in fan funding), old and beloved developers are rushing back to their computers with the realization that Kickstarter gives them a chance to design again. Joining this increasing pool of classic talent is Chris Jones and the Tex Murphy series.

    Kickstarter Picks: Battle of the Bulge

    If there's anything that DoubleFine's incredible Kickstarter campaign proved for the videogames industry, it's that respected veterans of the business can receive ample funding from devoted fans. With big-name video/board game development titans like Eric Lee Smith (as far back as 1979's Bulge), John Butterfield (member of the game designer hall of fame) and David Dunham (King of Dragon Pass) coming together to create a Kickstarter for Battle of the Bulge, they're already off to a great start.

    Kickstarter Picks: Map Monsters

    By

    You might not know it, but your neighborhood is a haven for hidden monsters and creatures of all kind. Few people understand this fact better than Richard Garfield, the creator of Magic: The Gathering. Garfield wants to introduce you to a world where monsters wander the city streets, which is why he has a Kickstarter in place for a location-based iOS game called Map Monsters.

    Kickstarter Picks: Micromon

    Thanks to the touch screen interface, RPG titles have proven to be a perfect fit for iOS devices. However, thanks to Nintendo's strict stance against participating in the App store craze, one of the most popular RPG subgenres has been left largely ignored: monster capture titles. MOGA's Micromon aims to change that.

    Kickstarter Picks: Nekro

    By

    Taking up holy swords and summoning angel warriors using the names of the true gods is all right for beating back the forces of evil, but sometimes you just need to summon a troll to do your dirty work. Nekro is an action game that lets you recruit the forces of darkness to help you Get Stuff Done, and its randomly-generated levels ensure that you won't have the same corpse-dragging experience twice.

    Kickstarter Picks: Republique

    By

    Big Brother is Watching You. But in a unique game that's being proposed by developer Alexei Tylevich and two game studios, Camouflaj and Logan, Big Brother may actually end up being your best friend and your savior. That's the general idea behind Republique, a "symbiotic" stealth-puzzle iOS game that puts you in charge of a young woman who's desperate to sneak out of a mysterious, totalitarian state.
