Clash of Clans Raid Smashes Kickstarter Goal

• Clash of Clans: The Epic Raid has successfully completed its fundraising campaign
• It has now raised an incredible 9 times its initial funding target
• The Epic Raid is a board game experience designed specifically for Clash of Clans fans

Given the franchise's immense popularity, it was no surprise to see Clash of Clans: The Epic Raid get funded almost instantly after its announcement. This tabletop adaptation of Supercell's hit strategy game swiftly exceeded its goal, and the recently concluded Kickstarter campaign has ultimately raised 9 times the original amount.

Starting with a modest $50,000 target, Clash of Clans: The Epic Raid has finished with a total of $491,000. While such success is expected for a brand as huge as Clash of Clans, the figure remains impressive nonetheless.

Over recent weeks, several board game review sites have gotten their hands on The Epic Raid, providing fans with a more detailed look at its gameplay. This hands-on coverage will be especially valuable for those eager to understand all the intricacies before buying.

A Logical Extension

Supercell has been actively pursuing crossovers and collaborations in recent months, alongside announcing new transmedia projects like the upcoming Netflix series. In this context, the successful launch of The Epic Raid makes perfect sense and clearly resonates with the fanbase.

The board game appears to be the next natural step, promising an authentic and fast-paced experience that captures the spirit of Clash of Clans. While it might not appeal to everyone—mobile gaming and tabletop gaming are quite different—it could be a perfect gift for fans or anyone with even a casual interest in the franchise.
