Today I got an email from Queen Games about a delay of several months for their Kickstarter delivery for the Escape big box and some other games. Unfortunately this is easily the worst KS pledge I have made, because it turns out that I could have got basically the same thing for much cheaper (and now much earlier) at Essen.
Queen Games is a regular games publisher - that means the games will come regular in the shelfs of the shops. There are many postings at BGG how this publisher work with their authors and other people. I am not a friend of Kickstarter in gerneral, but Queen Games and what they are doing with Kickstarter is an absolute no go.
jungleboy I am so sorry for you. How many money do you spend to this game publisher through Kickstarter?
I remember seeing Escape: Zombie City in Essen and telling Tom that I’d never buy another game from QG. Then we played Glux (after about half an hour of waiting for a table) a few days later and I bought it straight away.
Unrelated to Queen games, my Pack O Game 2 order has been delayed. I ordered this specifically as a stocking stuffer for my wife and son. Now that it is coming in January, it no longer serves its purpose. Lesson learned, don't Kickstart anything for gift giving purposes.
I won't really be needing them until mid-2017.
I don't know what you might have heard about Game Salute, but they apparently are notorious for terrible KS campaigns.
