Frosthaven passes $5m mark in 24 hours on Kickstarter
Frosthaven – from designer Isaac Childres – has raised over $5m within 24 hours of its Kickstarter campaign going live.
Currently sat at $7.3m at the time of writing, Frosthaven is already the third most funded tabletop project in Kickstarter history, behind Exploding Kittens ($8.7m) and Kingdom Death: Monster 1.5 ($12.3m).
Frosthaven is a dungeon-crawling sequel to Childres’ smash-hit board game Gloomhaven, which itself graced Kickstarter twice; first in 2017 raising $386k, and again in 2018, when a second printing raised $3.9m.
With over 50,000 backers already, Frosthaven’s Kickstarter campaign has 17 days still to go. Check out the project here.
