Gamevaults: World Of Warcraft Brings Azeroth To The Tabletop
July 5, 2021 by fcostin
Calling all World of Warcraft enthusiasts! There is a Kickstarter that you certainly will be interested in. Game Vaults has been collaborating with Blizzard Entertainment, developing GameVaults: World of Warcraft Edition - keeping the fundamental rules of the astoundingly popular MMOPRG to develop a tabletop gaming experience, worth collecting.

The campaign incorporates the world of Azeroth as a collectable/tabletop gaming experience. Providing a unique strategy game with 88 million potential moves, containing 600+ parts to build and develop into a world to build upon your own tabletop.

Horde Faction Leaders Miniatures // Gamevaults: World of Warcraft
Monster Miniatures // Gamevaults: World of Warcraft
Terrain Pieces // Gamevaults: World of Warcraft
Both terrain and miniatures should be familiar for those who have journeyed across the lands of World of Warcraft. Both the Alliance and the Hoards faction and many a monster miniature have featured, and each model has been designed meticulously and cast in metal. Creating extremely high-quality miniatures for both a collector and gamer.
Although there is quite a price tag included in each individual pledge, this Kickstarter offers a Core Edition, Limited Edition, and Onyx Edition, all offering incredibly collectable figures and game pieces for any WOW fan.
If you like the look of the miniatures and are interested in checking out how World of Warcraft can develop on the tabletop, the Kickstarter ends on the 27th July, and it is still to reach its ambitious goal of $500,000. So head on over to the campaign page to check out the full details of both the new gaming experience and the collectable miniatures centred around World of Warcraft.
Do you like the idea of an MMORPG on the tabletop?
That seems ridiculously expensive for what you get.
Indeed… that’s no game that’s a “look how big my wallet is” collectors item XD
I watched the gameplay example and I couldn’t see where the WoW setting had any influence on the actual game that was being demonstrated.
It’s like chess … with fancy pieces.
Lots of big words for some sort of fancy two player puzzle game.
Not that there is anything wrong with the game and its mechanics, but it just doesn’t feel like the license is doing anything. It might was well be World of Warcraft Monopoly or a WoW themed version of Sorry.
Yeah. That was my take on it too. A cut down version of chess in an expensive bundle.
Chess was maybe the wrong example, because the pieces actually have a unique use.
In this game everything has the same movement options.
It does remind me of a game that I don’t know by name.
A two player version of solitair ?
Something like that anyway.
fab looking figures.
I would be very surprised to see this fund. It’s just too expensive.
Well that’s disappointing. Not at all what I expected from the headline. Pass.
The mechanical box thing is ridiculously over engineered. They are also selling the premium all black onyx version as an ‘increased challenge’ – because it is literally harder to see what is going on when everything is black.
Basically this is a text book example of Kickstarter hubris where someone is trying to sell a vastly of over complicated product of what is a pretty simple traditional game.
What a lot of rubbish. $500?!? Can’t tell if they are just using stardust to make everything or just so far up their own arses they can see their teeth.
