Status Report!
A 15 minute social deduction game for 3-7 players about a starship Captain attempting to save their crew from Rampant AI.
Status Report! is an asymmetrical social deduction game where one player is the Captain of a spaceship and everyone else plays one of the ship's on-board Artificial Intelligence programs. Unfortunately for the Captain, only one of these AI is still operational. But which one?
Every Rampant AI player must try to convince the Captain that they are Operative while simultaneously killing as many of the crew as quickly as they can.
If the Captain can identify the one Operative AI or keep the crew alive long enough to purge the Rampant AI from the computer, they may just live to fly another day.

The hero that obtains the most power will be the one to slay the dragon.

"We are making halfling skeleton warrior cavalry, mounted archers, and a halfling skeleton necromancer for the halfling skeleton army!"
"Once again the world renown artist, Bob Olley continues sculpting halfling skeletons full of character and beauty (but don't say that to their face). This is kickstarter 4 in the Halfling Skeleton Army Series. Now we get the heavy hitters and scouts pivotal in any successful army.
We also get a halfling skeleton necromancer to cast spells and take over for Count Von Herbimyre. If you missed previous kickstarters, not to worry, you can get the units and characters featured in earlier as add ons in this one!"

They are back to Kickstarter this year. The Dice Tower has been around for years and is one of, not not the, largest board game coverage sites.

@beetle – A great catch sir 🙂 I am very familiar with the Dice Tower and their great array of content.
