University Games to bring Faeries & Magical Creatures to Kickstarter next month

University Games is launching its Faeries & Magical Creatures board game on Kickstarter next month.

Launching under the firm’s Forbidden Games label, Faeries & Magical Creatures is designed by Raccoon Tycoon inventor Glenn Drover and lands on Kickstarter on June 13th.

“The Faerie Realm that is created in Faeries & Magical Creatures offers an amazing, engaging setting for a strategy game,” said Bob Moog, President of University Games.

“The passionate fan base of the mythology and folklore, combined with the fans of Annie Stegg Gerard’s elegant art, gives us an enthusiastic foundation for this great new game.”

Fans can join Forbidden Games’ team of creators to play through the game at Gen Con this August and if its crowdfunding target is hit, Faeries & Magical Creatures will launch in the Fall.
