( PR4US.com | Press Release | 2020-10-29 11:27:54 )GOOD NERD BAD NERD GAMES has created its first co-op board game, The Treasure of Montecristo Island as well as an accompanying expansion pack, The Thief and the Purple Sapphire.
The Treasure of Montecristo Island is a co-op, adventure, survival game with crafting. The objective of The Treasure of Montecristo Island is to survive together as a team long enough to find the treasure, avoid the Thief, and escape the island. The expansion pack allows gamers to play as the Thief, with new traps, tactics, and challenges.
In order to find the treasure, players must gather resources from the island to craft various items. These items are either useful tools in order to help them survive or the altars which are needed to locate the treasure. Once all four altars are built and have been lit, the location of the treasure is revealed. Players must do all of this while not only surviving the dangers of the island, but also avoiding the Thief. The Thief will hunt your players throughout the entire game; always trying to steal resources and deal damage to any player they cross paths with.
The expansion pack expands the number of players to 3-7. One player takes on the roll of the Thief and hunts the Adventurers around the island in a race for the new treasure hidden on the island.
Pre-orders began on October 20th, 2020, through its Kickstarter campaign, which is currently 41% in its first week. Good Nerd Bad Nerd is also accepting requests from retailers through their Kickstarter for large orders.
Purchased board games, and its expansion pack, will be available shortly after Christmas 2020, a fantastic gift option for 2-6 players aged 10+. Game run time is between 60-120 minutes.
