I am always looking for a great tabletop game that steps outside the box and offers something different. One of my favorite places to search\u00a0is Kickstarter<\/a>. Not only are there some awesome ideas there but most of the time the creators are looking for their big break. I like that you can help someone else’s dream become a reality and\u00a0well worth it when it is\u00a0made and delivered.<\/p>\n

Pests!<\/strong><\/a> is one of those games that caught my attention. It is a competitive game for 2-6 players. Game mechanics include card drafting, modular board, variable player powers, and an action point allowance system. Play time is 45-75 minutes.<\/p>\n

You play as an Exterminator who specializes in the elimination of a particular type of Pest: Flying Bugs, Creepy Crawlies, Winged Beasts, Vicious Vermin, Unwanted Guests, or Spooky Specters<\/b>. You\u2019ve been hired to clear your type of pests out of a house, but when you arrive, you discover that the house has other types of infestations. The homeowner\u2019s hired several other exterminators, each with a different specialty, and only the first to complete their job will get paid!<\/p>\n

A pledge of $39 gives all that is pictured below with shipping included!<\/p>\n

Go check out their Kickstarter page<\/a> and they have 3 days left and you can help them to some very cool and reachable goals!<\/p>\n
