Crowdfunding for new card game Amiga Trumps
Following the motto "Let's keep Amiga gaming alive... in card game form!", the Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign for the new card game "Amiga Trumps" has been successfully launched. The funding goal of ¤ 1,762 has already been reached, but the campaign will continue until 23 July 2024.

The "Amiga Trumps" card deck brings the brilliant characters from the classic Amiga games to the stage: Inspired by the classic Trump card games of the 1980s, this deck brings 34 heroes from well-known Amiga titles into the hands of gaming fans.

For those unfamiliar with Trump card games: They are very easy to play. A deck is dealt evenly to all players. One player names a value from their top card (e.g. strength, heroism), and the other players read out the corresponding value from their cards. The highest value wins the round and the winner collects all the cards played. This continues until one player has won all the cards.

The special highlight of this deck are the cards themselves. Each card features a hero, villain or other main character from a classic Amiga title against a background image of the game. In addition to the character, the cards contain values in five categories: Strength, Heroism, Skill, Agility and Weapons. The game includes characters such as Guybrush Threepwood, Turrican, Rick Dangerous, Soccer Kid, Superfrog and Zool. A special option is the purchase of the deck with a golden trump card: LeChuck, with artwork from "Monkey Island 2: LeChuck's Revenge".

The cards are to be printed on laminated playing card in the finished product and come in a fully printed folding box.

The project can still be supported until 23 July 2024 on Kickstarter under the title link. (nba)

PDF magazine: REV'n'GE 158 (italienisch/englisch)
Besides the Italian original issue, the PDF magazine REV'n'GE ("Retro Emulator Vision and Game") is also available in English. The magazine's reviews compare, if available, the different ports of classic games to the various platforms of their time. Furthermore a focus is on rather unknown retro games.

Amiga-related, the current issue, which is dedicated to flight simulators, is about Shockwave and Moon Patrol. (snx)
