5-Minute Dungeon: Curses! Foiled Again! Expansion

Created by Wiggles 3D

Curses! Foiled Again! is the long-awaited expansion to 5-Minute Dungeon, a chaotic, co-operative, real-time card game.

Latest Updates from Our Project:

WE DID IT!
almost 6 years ago – Wed, Jun 06, 2018 at 12:05:50 AM

After two thrilling weeks, we’ve made it to the end of the campaign! We knew we had a great community that was eager for more 5-Minute Dungeon content, but we had no idea that the response would be this overwhelming! We’d like to take a moment to extend our sincere thanks to all 10,329 of you for your amazing support and engagement with our project.

Now we're eager to get rolling at making these games, so you can start playing!

What’s Next?

Well, now we need to allow Kickstarter a couple of weeks to process all of your payments. On June 19, we’ll send out the BackerKit surveys. These surveys will allow you to do three important things:

  • Choose whether to upgrade your expansion box to the larger 10.5” x 10.5” box
  • Add on any additional copies of the expansion that you may want
  • And most importantly, provide your address so we know where to ship your games!

We’ll do a reminder update when we’re about to send out the surveys.

Poll Results

We also had you vote on which art you preferred for the Crowd Funding card, and the results were decisive! Nearly two thirds of you chose the Druid and her Busker Spirits!

Thanks so much for all your votes and feedback!

Stay tuned! We'll keep releasing updates as we have more news to share!

LAST 24 HOURS! Timer App News & Final Poll
almost 6 years ago – Mon, Jun 04, 2018 at 10:21:16 PM

What a rush! It’s been a thrilling ride for us, and hopefully you’ve all enjoyed it as well. Now we’re down to the final 24 hours, so if you know anyone who might like to grab a copy of the game, please encourage them to back now! (Especially if they would want the Big Box… those are selling out fast!)

If you’re one of the many new backers who have joined us in the last day, welcome, and thank you so much for backing!

New Narrator and Music for Timer App

Since we’re on the topic of time, we have an announcement about the timer app.

Those of you who play 5-Minute Dungeon are probably very familiar with this awesome app, but for those who are new to the game, it’s a free download that keeps track of time for you, accompanied by a thrilling musical score and five hilarious narrators.

Well, to celebrate the Curses! Foiled Again! expansion, we’re going to be adding a sixth narrator and a second musical score to choose from. Both of these will have a spooky theme to reflect the flavor of this expansion.

We’ll start work on the Timer App update after the campaign ends and it should come out this summer.

Choose Your Curse Poll Result

In our last update, we asked backers to vote on which wacky curse they would prefer to see in the game: either play with your cards facing away from you, or play without your thumbs.

And the results are in:

Thanks to all of you who voted!

And now, it’s time for...

The Final Poll

Our 5-Minute Dungeon heroes have been watching the success we’ve been having with Kickstarter and have decided to try some crowdfunding of their own to support their dungeon raiding efforts. The Druid is doing a little panhandling with her forest spirits, while the Sorceress and Ranger are taking more of a door-to-door approach:

Which of these would you prefer to see in the game?

We’ll post the results tomorrow, when our crowd funding campaign ends!

Puppies vs. Kittens Result, Choose Your Curse
almost 6 years ago – Sat, Jun 02, 2018 at 01:11:24 AM

Greetings, backers! We’re in the final stretch now… only four more days to go until the end of the campaign! We appreciate the amazing support from all 8,500 of you! Thanks for making this our most-backed Kickstarter to date!

The results are in on the vote between the shoe-launching wizard puppy and the army of kittens in mechanical boots. (Now there’s a sentence you don’t see every day!)

And with nearly 3,000 votes cast, the winner is…

Thanks to all of you who voted. And to Keenan C, who suggested that the puppy should have been called “Tinkles, Destroyer of Soles”... you’re absolutely right. If she had won, we would definitely have used that.

Choose Your Curse!

And now for something a little different. We’ve done some voting on which art you prefer, and we’ve had you suggest a name for a card, but this time, we’re going to have you help us choose what a card actually DOES.

Here are a couple of nefarious curses:

It’s a battle between playing without your thumbs, and relying on your chums! Which will YOU choose?

We’ll post the results on Monday.

Name That Card Results, Vote on New Art
almost 6 years ago – Wed, May 30, 2018 at 11:48:52 PM

Hello backers! The campaign is continuing to roll along at a great pace. Thanks for backing our project!

On Monday, we asked for your help in naming a Curse from the Dungeon Master’s Boss Deck that prevents players from pausing the timer. And boy, did you guys ever come through! 650+ comments later, we had a huge list of suggestions to choose from. After a lot of debate, we finally settled on this title:

That’s WAY better than what we had come up with! Props to Eissa Ahmad and Paul Molloy, who appear to have been the first people to suggest this name, and hearty thanks to all of you who took the time to send us your suggestions.

Puppies vs Kittens

Time for another poll! The K.I.C.K. 9000 needs animal companions to help him with all the kicking he needs to do. But should it be an army of cats in adorable hats, or a magical dog that chews your shoes… and then launches them at your face?

Which of these two guys do you get the biggest kick out of? Which one deserves to be the sole survivor, and which one should be de-feet-ed?

We’ll announce the results on Friday.

Early Bird Poll Results and Name That Card!
almost 6 years ago – Mon, May 28, 2018 at 11:47:48 PM

On Saturday, we offered up two different pieces of art for the Early Bird card, and asked you to vote for your favorite. But which Early Bird got the worm?

This time, there was a clear winner, with over 70% of the vote:

Beware the Early Bird
Beware the Early Bird

You can look forward to facing down this feathered fiend every time you take on the K.I.C.K. 9000! Thanks to all who voted!

Name That Card

Time for something a little different. We’ve got a Curse Card that we like, and art for it that we like, but we need your help finding a good name for it. Here’s the card:

Can you come up with a clever title for this card? If so, respond with your suggestion in the comment thread of this update. On Wednesday, we’ll pick our favorite from among the suggestions.
