Mantic Games has revealed that the first print run of its dungeon crawl board game
Dungeon Saga was 15,000 copies. All of those copies have sold out at the publisher level, although there may still be copies at the distributor or retailer level.
Dungeon Saga was funded via Kickstarter (see "$1M Kickstarter Dungeon Crawl Board Game Comes to Trade"
