The über-popular digital game Plague, Inc is set to make a species jump from digital platforms to table top gaming by way of Kickstarter. The project, from developers Ndemic Creations, is banking on the nearly 70 million online players to fuel the production of a card based title wherein up to five players compete to be THE disease which wipes out all of humanity.
Plaque, Inc: The Board Game is already well past its funding goal and scheduled to be released to backers this November with copies hitting retailers later. There are still two weeks to go in the project run and you can score a copy of the game at the $30 pledge level.
About the project:

Plague Inc. The Board Game is a strategic game of infection, evolution and extinction for 2-5* players lasting 60-90 minutes. Each player is a deadly disease competing against other players in a battle to be first to infect and wipe out the world!
