1,196 backers pledged $18,026 to help bring this project to life.
In the heart of the city, steel beams race skyward. While other cities sprawl endlessly outwards, these city planners are looking up - up - UP! Real estate prices are skyrocketing, and it’s time for a new class of tower, the “Supertall”, to reshape the skyline.
In Supertall, 2-3 players are competing developers, presenting their plans for new towers.
Featuring 18 Plan cards with various amenities, players draw 1 card each turn and must choose to add it to their towers, pass it to their rivals, or leverage it for special abilities.
Once all the plans have been built, players score points based on the mix of Residential, Business, Entertainment, and Natural amenities in their towers.
However, due to constant lobbying, City Hall will heavily tax one of those types making it worth 0 points, so be sure to plan ahead.
The player with the most points using hard work and good planning will rise to the top, in Supertall!
Supertall is the 39th game in our Wallet Line. Scroll down for information on how to get other games now or with your pledge here.
We are offering a few things. Supertall in both PNP and physical game, an Instant Collection of Button Shy games, an Instant Collection with a Collector's Box, a retail level for stores that want to be one of the very few that carries our wallet games, and a standard or deluxe subscription to our Board Game of the Month Club (scroll down for full details on the club).
We're also offering Sprawlopolis for anyone that missed it last month, or anyone that wants to combine games for international shipping. (Shipping two wallet games is the same price as shipping one).
In previous campaigns we've created about 6 cards worth of expansion material and used them as stretch goals. Going forward, we're just going to give them away from the start. So no worries on whether we'll hit it or not, you are getting this expansion if you pledge here.
Use the INSTANT COLLECTION reward levels to get 2 extra games. If you do this, please let us know which games you want using the following google form. (LINK: https://goo.gl/forms/v6uu9nydSZs3YmGr1) We will make sure the games are in stock and let you know if there are any issues. Some are limited and will be first come first serve.

Nat Levan is the designer of Supertall. He's also designed New Bedford, Time Management: The Time Management Game, and our very own Timestamp series, as well as many of our Nanodaptions (Onium, Wagon Wheels, Pont D'Avignon).
Marty Cobb is the artist for Supertall. He's also illustrated many other games for us including Semifinal Fantasy, Jeweler's Row, Wild Cats, Hot Dogs, and Fever Chill.
Our $5 packages include an episode of Timestamp, a time-travel game that takes place on a single postcard. Each episode is fully playable on its own, and supporters receive PNP links to previous episodes. It also includes a character in our expanding series Banned Books. All supporters receive the Banned Books base game in their first package. It's a solo game of literary characters trying to get their books un-banned. And finally it includes a copy (and a link to print more) of the next Legends of Dsyx Roll and Write Game. Legends of Dsyx is an ongoing roll & write series where each game is set in the same kingdom, but the games play very differently.
And our $20 June package includes all of the above and a copy of the featured wallet game (or the wallet game of your choice). The next package will feature Supertall.
With a lot to juggle and it being two people, we will occasionally see delays. A few previous projects were a little behind schedule so we've adjusted our schedule accordingly. Our last project is heading to the printers, and the one before that is shipping out this week.
