We all want games that exceed our expectations. but sometimes, they also let us down. 9 crowdfunded board games from early 2025 that just didn’t live up to the MY hype. It might be unpolished gameplay, design decisions that missed the mark, or simply not feeling worth the investment from a deluxification standpoint.

FULL DISCLAIMER!! These AREN'T “bad” games necessarily!!
Some are gorgeous, innovative, or even wildly successful on Kickstarter or Gamefound. But here’s why they just didn’t land for me. I hope they're better for you though!

Thanks for watching!
