We took a look at the top funded tabletop games for Kickstarter this summer to see how it affected our Top Ten Tabletop Game Kickstarters list (which we did from info provided in different formats by Kickstarter, see "Top Ten Tabletop Game Kickstarters"), and there were two new titles in the Top 10.Cthulhu Wars, by Sandy Petersen, topped off at $1,403,981 (see "'Cthulhu Wars' Tops $1 Million"), which puts it at #6.
And Deadzone, from Mantic Games, also came in over $1 million, at $1,216,482 (see "'Deadzone' Joins Million Dollar Club").
Two titles got bumped out of the Top 10: Relic Knights and Zombicide, from Coolminiornot.
The dollars required to make the Top 10 went up around $140,000 to over $920,000.
As we did last time, we've also included some additional info to show other metrics for the top dollar projects. Both of the new projects to the list had around 4,300 backers at around $300 per backer.
