Have you ever backed something on Kickstarter? (1 Viewer)

Or a similar platform? How did it turn out for you?

Yes, no regrets. I backed an artist I'd been following on Tumblr for years. Always loved her style, and she was releasing a book featuring a handful of her work. I also got a coloring book, a sneak of her comic, and a holographic bookmark.

I feel like it always works better when it's someone with established reliability, because then they're just effectively using the site to manage preorders.

My own Kickstarter list:

• Dining room table and chairs
• A book of one-shots for TTRPGs
• One of Brandon Sanderson's books
• Liquid core dice

Everything's basically worked out for me, but all of the companies had established, successfully fulfilled campaigns in the past.

I keep seeing ads for random board games that look fun, but I talk myself out of buying in. If they're good, they'll hit retail later.

Oh yes! The one I backed let you pick out the size and shape of table and the wood it was made out of. Helps them with their production line, from what I understand.

It's a table where the tops come off so you can use the vault for board games, puzzles, crafts, whatever you might have that takes a while. You can get it in fancy wood, like Bolivian Rosewood or Ebony, but I just got mine in cherry.
