A few days ago I posted about our experience with 5-Minute Dungeon. Since that time I have played it with friends and coworkers alike. Everyone has had a good time playing and you will too. Even though I got a free pre-production copy of the game I’m going back and funding the game for another copy. It is that much fun to play. Here is a video that my family made while playing.

And below is a press release with Launch Day information. Please go fund this Kickstarter Campaign and get a copy for yourself, it is so much fun to play. Also, do not miss out on a great EARLY BIRD DEAL which will only be available on Launch Day, Today!

5-MINUTE DUNGEON, NEW CO-OP CARD GAME FROM AWARD-WINNING PUBLISHER WIGGLES 3D MAKES KICKSTARTER DEBUT NOVEMBER 1

LONDON, Ontario – 5-Minute Dungeon, a fast-paced, co-operative, real-time card game, launches on Kickstarter November 1, from award-winning game publisher Wiggles 3D.

Adrenaline-fueled to create a jolt of excitement for casual and advanced players alike, 5-Minute Dungeon is a game in which players have a short five minutes to conquer a dungeon. Its humor-filled fantasy world is home to creatures like “A Cactus That Wants a Hug,” “The Grime Reaper” and “A Shark With Legs.” In the game, two to five players join together and choose up to five heroes to battle monsters, overcome obstacles, and defeat the dungeon boss. There are five dungeons to defeat, each more challenging than the last, with the final dungeon requiring precise skill, speed, and strategy to defeat. With no time to form a carefully-considered plan, and no predicting what dangers lie ahead, communication and teamwork are the name of the game, crucial to surviving the 5-Minute Dungeon.

“Designed with enthusiasts, life-long dungeon-crawlers and casual gamers in mind, 5-Minute Dungeon feeds into the hottest trend — co-operative gameplay. It’s a fun, fast-paced card game that can be played anytime,” said Connor Reid, creator of 5-Minute Dungeon. “With the game’s humorous tone, overarching goal, detailed art and rapid action, we’re confident that 5-Minute Dungeon will be the next must-have game launched on Kickstarter.”

A 5-Minute Dungeon timer app, available for free on both iOS and Android, keeps the action on track as the team attempts to conquer the dungeon in less than five minutes.
