This month we’re taking a look at four cooperative board games that are on Kickstarter right now. If you’re interested in any of these games, head on over to their pages to see videos, rules, stretch goals, and other info.


Sidekick Saga

Current Status: Funded

A legacy cooperative board game featuring Heroes: fighting Villains, exploring Cities, and coordinating strategies!

What I really like about Sidekick Saga is that it’s a superhero game with original superheroes. I also like the art style they went with and the fact that the campaign was designed to be replayable.

¡TACO FIGHT!

Current Status: Funded

¡Taco Fight! is a fully cooperative real-time frenzy as you and your friends defend against six waves of increasingly spicy tacos by smashing them, eating them, or fighting them with an army of your own tacos. You’re all on one team and there are no turns. Everyone works together at the same time to survive the waves of attacking tacos. If one of you loses, you all lose.

I like most cooperative real-time games and I like goofy themes, so ¡Taco Fight! is a game I’ll definitely try. I recommend watching this two-player playthrough to see if it’s the type of game you’d enjoy.

Carnival Zombie (Second Edition)

Current Status: Funded

Carnival Zombie is a cooperative board game for 1 to 6 players, following a group of characters who are fleeing on terra firma from a sinking city overrun by zombies. Players control this party of heroes as they fight their way to one of the possible escape routes out of the city. During the night they face restless hordes of zombies, while during the day they recover, move, or search for useful items and survivors.

The first edition of Carnival Zombie, which I never had a chance to play, was known for being extremely difficult. I love tough co-ops and I usually enjoy playing tower defense co-ops, so I do want to give this new edition a try.

Ocean Crisis

Current Status: Funded

Ocean Crisis is a cooperative worker placement game which depicts this real life marine ecosystem disaster caused by pollution. The game also simulates some of the crucial approaches and policies that we can adopt in reality to cope with such disaster.

I like this theme, but what makes me really excited about Ocean Crisis is that it’s a cooperative worker placement game. There really aren’t too many of those out there, so I’m curious to see how the designers made it work. The game also has a pretty cool look to it.
