Small World 2, the massive digital version of our best-selling epic fantasy board game is invading new territory today. For the first time, Small World is available for both Android devices and Steam PC – the world’s most popular PC gaming platform!
Online players will find tons of online competition waiting for them as Steam and Android players will join scores of Small World 2 for iPad players on the Days of Wonder Online network.
Sometimes you just need a little patience…
Over a year ago the Days of Wonder game development team was hidden away (in the cold, dark, Dwarf cavern we keep them in), secretly playing around with some new 3D print technology.
After a few weeks, they emerged and in their hands they carried a couple of very cool, highly-detailed figures of Small World characters. The rest of us immediately fell to our knees and cried, “I want! I want! I want!”
There’s a big red circle marking the month of October on every board gamer’s calendar. The world’s largest game convention – Essen Spiel – takes place in Germany this October 24-27 and Days of Wonder is debuting two new products at Essen: Ticket to Ride Nederland – the 4th in our series of Map Collections; and the brand new Art of Small World Statues. You’ll also get a chance to play our newest adventure game, Relic Runners and even get a preview of the upcoming Small World 6-Player Map.
Some of your favorite characters from Philippe Keyaerts’ legendary fantasy board game have inspired incredible 3D figures. Finely sculpted and hand-painted, you will marvel at the amazing detail found in these 20 cm tall very limited-edition art figures based on Miguel Coimbra’s illustrations. Small World fans will surely want to have one… or all!
More than 3 years ago, Small World was the first digital board game to ship on a tablet, the same day the iPad shipped! Today, we are proud to introduce Small World 2, a from-the-ground-up rewrite and massive update to our best-selling board game. We’ve added 3-5 player maps, 2 different online modes, pass’n-play and local play, along with the new-to-digital Be Not Afraid… expansion and much, much more.
Join our backers, and Meet the Igors before it’s too late!
Small World 2, the brand new digital version of our award-winning board game – with 3-5 player maps, asynchronous online play, the Be Not Afraid… expansion and more – is coming to the iPad and the Kindle Fire, to Android tablets and PCs running Steam, thanks to the support of the thousands of backers who’ve joined our Kickstarter campaign this past three weeks.
Rewards for everyone – iPad, PC, Android and Kindle Fire tablet owners… and board game players too!
As the very first board game available the day the iPad launched, Small World pioneered a whole new world of board games on tablets. It earned critical acclaim and hordes of devoted players, but aside from a few mini-expansions, barely changed since its launch. But for the past year our development team in Paris has been working on a “from-the-ground-up” rewrite of the game; and Small World 2 – a brand new version with 3-5 player maps, asynchronous online play, the Be Not Afraid expansion and more – will be available on the iPad later this summer.
We’re creating a new digital version of YOUR favorite fantasy board game… and you can help make it better thanks to Kickstarter!
Small World was the first board game EVER on the iPad – if you were one of those who waited in line at your Apple store that day, you could start playing the minute you got home. Fans and critics alike loved it. But our development team quickly turned their focus onto Ticket to Ride for iPad making it look like we had abandoned Small World.
Congratulations to Ben Miller, Sean McFarlane, Duncan Conner and Christian Olsson of Scotland who battled over the Small World board for 54 hours and 45 minute to break the Guinness World record for the Longest Boardgame Marathon in Scotland last week. Sean apparently didn’t get enough as he challenged any of the volunteers who witnessed the event to a game of Small World over the weekend! (more…)
