Conclusion: the hit deckbuilder as a board game — closed at 41× its goal, ¥208.68M (funded, Jun 30 2026).
Why it's hot
The Japanese edition of the board-game adaptation (Downfall expansion) of the acclaimed deckbuilder Slay the Spire. Against a ¥5M goal it closed at ¥208.68M from 4,879 backers (4,173% funded). It used All-in funding, so rewards ship to everyone who backed before the deadline.

Editor's note
Games and hobbies live on passionate fans who drive the opening surge — here the source game's fame met real demand for a localized edition. Campaign ended Jun 30, 2026 (final figures).
The editorial desk of KAKEHASHI (“a bridge”). We host no campaigns and take no fees — so we can independently check, across CAMPFIRE, Makuake, READYFOR and more, whether and how to back, always with sources.
Conclusion: judge board-game campaigns on translation scope, shipping-delay risk and whether it's a real game or just an expansion cash-grab — not the source IP's fame.
