River Horse Games and Lynnvander Studios have joined hands to create a new Terminator-inspired board game. The license has been taken from Skydance.
Titled Terminator Genisys: Rise of the Resistance and based on Skydance’s feature film Terminator Genisys from director Alan Taylor, the board game has been illustrated by award-winning artist Steve Argyle, best known for his work on Magic: The Gathering and Legend of the Five Rings.
The board game features loads of highly, detailed miniatures, including your favorite heroes and their robotic counterparts. With a variety of interlocking tiles that form the game board, as well as a series of missions that string together to create a major story-driven campaign, players will struggle to outsmart the most powerful artificial intelligence in history, all in a desperate scramble for survival.
Commenting on the association, Criz Jamers, project lead, River Horse Games said, “With Lynnvander behind the mechanics and development combined with Steve’s incredible talent in illustration, we’re excited to create a unique and stand out product.”
Moreover, the game will allow players to battle against the nearly unstoppable forces of SkyNet.
The board game’s Kickstarter campaign is set to launch on April 9.
“From what we’ve seen so far, this game really feels like you’re up against SkyNet in 2029,” Criz further added.
