Clash of Clans Board Game Hits Kickstarter Goal in 30 Minutes

• Clash of Clans: The Epic Raid's Kickstarter campaign reached its full funding goal in just thirty minutes
• Though not the fastest campaign, it trailed the record for tabletop funding by only ten minutes
• Developed by Maestro Media, The Epic Raid brings the beloved mobile RTS classic to tabletop gaming

This is quite a surprise, isn't it? Just thirty minutes after its Kickstarter launch, Maestro Media's tabletop adaptation of Supercell's iconic mobile RTS Clash of Clans met its funding target and is now advancing through stretch goals with over a month remaining.

Clash of Clans: The Epic Raid is a miniatures-centered tabletop experience that translates the RTS classic into physical form. Filled with detailed miniatures and a vibrant game board, it lets you construct your fortress, train your army, and launch raids against friends while defending your own territory.

While not the absolute fastest funding achievement, Clash of Clans: The Epic Raid comes remarkably close to the top tabletop success on Kickstarter; Exploding Kittens previously set the record by reaching its initial goal just ten minutes faster. Regardless of comparisons, this remains a remarkable accomplishment that validates Maestro Media's confidence in Clash of Clans' enduring appeal.

As previously noted, this tabletop adaptation signals Clash of Clans' continued expansion into mainstream recognition. This isn't to suggest the franchise was previously obscure, but as any Star Wars enthusiast would confirm, quality merchandise and cross-media presence can make a franchise ubiquitous.

Clearly, the public shares this sentiment, and now we await The Epic Raid's reception upon release. The tabletop community maintains high standards, so Maestro Media and their acclaimed development team must deliver an exceptional product to ensure The Epic Raid becomes a resounding success.
