If you had the board secret plan Fireball Island in the ‘ 80s , odds are you never draw a blank it . Not just because it was a baseless plot that let you bucket along marble around and knock out opposing players , but because the box and display board were so ridiculously massive . That original game was shelved by Milton Bradley long ago but , as of today , it ’s making a comeback .
Restoration Games just put up a Kickstarter for a new , more succinct but still activity - packed version of Fireball Island — and in less than a solar day , it ’s already blown past its $ 250,000 goal . That means it ’s in reality going to get bring out . Here ’s the company ’s Kickstarter video recording .
And here are a few photos and GIFs of a prototype version of the new board , which looks simply awesome .
The picture gives a good overview — but basically , the honorable part of the original game was position a marble in the mouth of Vul - Kar and find out it rove down the control panel , randomly wreaking mayhem on other players . The rest of the game was kinda elementary , but that part was awe-inspiring . All of that original action is included here but now it sounds like thing are a little more strategical . It seems like a desirable upgrade .
The Kickstarter isat this linkand is hitting new stretch goal hour by hour , which is exciting . The aim is to have this new version of Fireball Island in household by November .
