Just as video game developers have been thriving on Kickstarter, so to have board game creators. The latest blends to the two, bringing Crytek’s PC-melting Crysis series to the tabletop.

Crysis Analogue Edition is an officially licensed strategy game for two to eight players, with Nanosuit-wearing USF soldiers and opposing CELL troops. The game takes place on a hex-grid board with moveable walls and cover.

The game comes with character sheets that allow USF soldiers to change between the three nanosuit modes: speed, armor, and stealth with different game effects, weapon cards, and tokens. The standard version of the game is available at the €75 ($84) tier, with a collector’s edition (complete with four Ceph alien miniatures) for €150 ($167).

Developer Frame6 says the prototype is complete and needs the funding for manufacturing. The company also has stretch goals planned that include additional scenarios and improved miniatures.

Frame6’s website indicates that it currently has a tower defense video game, Splee & Glob, that has been approved via Steam Greenlight. It also has another title that is currently on hold. No full releases are credited to the company’s name.

We’ve embedded a game walkthrough above. You can check out the Crysis Analogue Edition Kickstarter page for more details. Frame6 is asking for €85,000 ($94,851) to manufacture the game.
