From Stratus Games:
In DiceAFARI, players create unique, animal-shaped maps using tiles that represent various African terrains. On each turn, the current player rolls custom dice to select a route to visit during the safari, then takes a photo of one of the exotic animals found in the area. Other players can then visit the same areas to take any remaining photos. After the whole map has been visited, points are scored for the best sets of photographs taken and the areas most recently visited.
The rules and a print-and-play version of the game are freely available to customers for evaluation. The final game is scheduled for delivery to Kickstarter backers in June, 2012.
Stratus Games is turning to Kickstarter for assistance with initial production costs, which include professional artwork and design, high-quality manufacturing, safety testing, and shipping, among others. Project backers will receive many benefits, including discounted prices, early delivery of the final product, exclusive components, and component upgrades if stretch goals are reached. By including customers early on in the process, the game will be tailor-made to fit customers’ needs and production of the game will happen sooner than otherwise anticipated.
