Soar Through the Clouds with Zeppeldrome: The Hazardous Dirigible Rally on Kickstarter

Nov 20, 2013

An interesting aerial racing game, from 12SP Entertainment is currently up for funding on Kickstarter. In Zeppeldrome: The Hazardous Dirigible Rally two to four players race each other to lay claim to be the fastest and (dare I say) most hell bent for leather pilot through strategy and clever card play. The project needs your support so give it a peek. I can’t say I’m the biggest fan of humorously themed games but Zeppeldrome looks like a unique design concept. A pledge of $35.00 gets you a copy of the game and the project runs through December 15th.

From 12SP Entertainment:

A humorous, puzzle, screw-your-neighbor game with a hazardous, modular board; and cards used to help you or mess with your opponents.

You’ve brought your racing dirigible to the most prestigious rally in the world. And you mean to win. Held outside of a giant flying castle, The Matterhorn, each race has adifferent combination of obstacles to face (such as the Tragic Lemming Migrationand the Four Old Folks Looking for the Farmer’s Market), and your opponents will bring different advantages and hazards to the rally as well (such as using their Grappling Cannon to pull themselves closer, or their Aerodynamic Headgear to get just a little better airspeed). Will you be able to figure out the best paths to take while dealing with your opponents in the most effective ways?

Game-play is run with cards that are either your planned route for the turn (top half of the card), or actions that you play to hinder other players or to help yourself (bottom half of the card).

“Zeppeldrome” has four sections that each have interchangeable boards. This modular board allows players to set a different courses each time they play. The core game comes with four boards for each of the four sections. The four for each section includes one blank and three with hazards. The blank board is for players to use with downloadable hazards that will be available on our website. These boards are both puzzling and challenging in game-play, and funny and lighthearted in theme and artwork.
