Pure Nostalgia in a Chaotic Roll and Write! | Retrograde Kickstarter Review
13Retrograde is a nostalgia fueled real time roll and write game from Resonym games, on Kickstarter now. It takes me back to high school math class playing Space Invaders on my TI-83, and I love it! Not only is it filled with Nostalgia, it's a REALLY FUN GAME!

Cute but deadly Astro-Droids are invading the Earth! Grab a joystick — or better yet, some dice — and blast as many as you can to clear your board!
Each round you and your opponents roll your dice fast, racing to match combos shown on the Target Cards. Be the first to claim the best Target Card and spend your dice to put chains of Droids on your sheet out of commission.
Target Cards show what you can blast this round. Roll fast, or an opponent might beat you to the card you want! Each card also features a Coin for extra rolls, a wild Comet, or a Power-Up that gives you special abilities.
Blast columns of Droids to destroy Bosses for bonus points! Blast rows of Droids to unlock the Power-Ups you collect.
