The Bard’s Tale IV Kickstarter Goes Live

Posted by Rampant Coyote on June 2, 2015

It’s up.

The Bard’s Tale IV Crowdfunding Campaign on Kickstarter

Those who pledge the first day get a free copy of one of three games … which, if you are like me, you already own. But oh, well. Maybe I can gift it. 🙂

While The Bard’s Tale isn’t the first game I reference when I talk about the great dungeon-crawlers of the past, it’s on a short list. I do love the idea of another party-based, turn-based (well, “phase-based”) dungeon crawler. Wasteland 2 gave me confidence in their abilities as a current developer, rather than relying solely upon the successes of the past.

So, yeah. I’m excited about this one. I figure if they can do as decent a job as Ubisoft did with Might & Magic X: Legacy, or as well as they did with Wasteland 2, then it’ll be well worth the cash. So here I am, promoting a game I’ll be directly competing against in the marketplace! Go,my competitor! May you set new standards of excellence!

It’s definitely an interesting time to be a fan of old-school western-style RPGs.
