The latest Zombicide came in at a new high for the franchise and became the new #3 in our chart of the top funded tabletop game Kickstarters.  This is the first change in the chart since April (see "Top 10 Tabletop Game Kickstarters"). 
 
Zombicide Season 3 not only surpassed previous Zombicide Kickstarters (see "'Zombicide Season 3' Hits $2M"), it also pushed Deadzone by Mantic Games off the Top 10 list.  This raises the base amount to even qualify for the Top 10 by nearly $125,000 to over $1.3 million.  Zombicide Season 3 also cracked the Top 20 most funded Kickstarter projects worldwide list on the Kickstarter website, which has it currently ranked at #18.
 
Zombicide Season 3 attracted over 3,000 more backers than previous Zombicide Kickstarter campaigns (an almost 35 percent participation increase), though they spent almost $15.00 less per backer.  CoolMiniOrNot has built a solid reputation among backers and game fans by delivering promised content in a timely fashion with its Kickstarter-to-Trade model (see "CoolMiniOrNot's Kickstarter-to-Trade Model").
