Official site is up: http://evildead2boardgames.com

Looks like it's going to be a Kickstarter campaign.
 
RE: Evil Dead 2 Boardgame

Hope their Kickstarter is sucessful; this looks a bit like a cross between Magic: The Gathering and a regular board game.

You can already back the game on Kickstarter.

... And it has already been funded. That was fast. Actually, it already went $15,000 past the initial goal and it still has more than a month left to go. They're gonna get a lot of money to produce this thing. I hope that translates to a real high quality product.

The game actually seems a lot cooler and more fun than what I expected. That video made me wanna play it. I might have to pick one up eventually. The miniatures and the cabin map look really cool.

I'm glad that the Kickstarter is already funded; I wonder if they'll do more ad-ons if it keeps getting popular.

It's a lot of fun to look at, isn't it DYD? It's an interesting mix of board and card play.

It's already almost $90.000 over the goal. That's amazing. Maybe they weren't expecting this much interest.

It does look fun and I can see some tabletop RPG elements in there. Even if the game itself doesn't turn out to be so great, you could probably use the miniatures and cabin map in other RPG systems. If the game is actually good and gets popular enough, the idea of getting add-ons and expansions sounds great. They could do something like in HeroQuest and also incorporate into the system the possibility of creating your own scenarios and maps to play. That's if the system even supports that type of thing, of course. It's cool either way.

The early bird special is already all sold out and I'm one of those lucky ones! I'm looking forward to it since I do have friends that love this type of board game.

It's interesting because the reception for their comic book series has been comparatively received quietly.

Now I wonder if you could port everything into the AOD game Bleeding Edge did in the day.

I'd definitely grab a copy if I had the dollars; having little artifacts from the cabin thrown in is indeed pretty cool.

The game actually sounds like a lot of fun! I love the idea of going Deadite and trying to lure people to their doom.
 
Gameplay seems simple yet complicated at the same time:

...Hmm! Looks like a combination of a dice-based RPG and a character-driven board game. It's at least very unique!
