League of Geeks brought the world of tabletop to video games with the release of the board game inspired Armello in 2015, and now Armello is becoming an actual board game in 2024. King of the Castle Games, Fire Opal Games, and Quillsilver have teamed up to bring Armello to life as a board game on Kickstarter, and the campaign has already surpassed its goal handily.
League of Geeks' Trent Kusters, Ty Carey, and Blake Mizzi co-created the original Armello video game, and they are thrilled to see it brought to life as a board game."To play the physical board game of Armello is such a delight, it's a wonderfully familiar experience. They've captured all the essence of the digital game and the magic that made it so special, then translated that into a game you can play in person with your friends.
