May 22, 2021: Fireside Games' Castle Panic Deluxe Collection On Kickstarter

Fireside Games is at it again, with an upgraded edition of their classic Castle Panic, now with detailed plastic minis for monsters and the castle itself! Castle Panic Deluxe is available through their new KIckstarter project, and has already funded, so if you're a fan of the game, or you just want to take the plunge into the deep end, now is the time. 

We here at SJ Games are big fans of our friends (and former coworkers) over at Fireside Games, and of Castle Panic in particular. It was actually my first cooperative game ever! Owners Justin and Anne-Marie demoed it for me at Dragon's Lair, one of our local game stores, and I was hooked. It's a great way to introduce someone to the world of cooperative games, as it's easy to learn, but the challenge ramps up dramatically and even moreso with expansions. 

The game was awesome enough that we worked together to make Munchkin Panic, adding our own monsters to the world. It's just an all-around blast to play, easy to learn, and perfect for any gamer looking for a fantasy-themed challenge. 

Check out the Kickstarter here! Personally, I know I'm diving into the awesome add-ons. There are new playmats, plus an all-new expansion called Crowns and Quests! I can't wait to see what that looks like. Congrats to Fireside Games on funding, and here's hoping for a record-breaking campaign!
