Short Summary

  • My name is Spartaco Albertarelli, I'm a professional game designer, with 30 years of experience and more than 100 games published so far (some of my games on Pinterest).
  • After a life spent designing games for game publishers, I decided to open my own company: KaleidosGames. In ancient Greek, Kaleidos means "beautiful images" and I believe that in games art is as important as the rules.
  • KaleidosGames is a very small company, but we know how to design and manufacture good quality games, thanks to my long experience.
  • The idea behind this project is a little bit "crazy": revamping one of the most ancient and sophisticated Italian card game (Scopone), adding a twist and a stunning deck of illustrated cards.
  • The original game is usually played with the typical Italian cards and it's almost unknown outside my country. It's a pity, because it a very clever game.
  • What we did can be summarized by a simple image: from this 

    to this

  • Primiera will let you play either the classic game and my personal evolution, using a deck of modern design cards, with stunning art and all the values clearly printed. 
  • The 40 cards are tarot size, and they are all fully illustrated.
  • You can read and download the rules (in English, French, German, Spanish and Italian) on my Issuu page.
  • You can have a look at the entire deck on our facebook page.

What We Need & What You Get

  • The entire project is already finished. All the artworks are ready, and we'll print the game in any case, also if goal is not reached. This is the reason why we set our goal to just $ 2.000.
  • KaleidosGames is not yet distributed in many countries outside Italy and we are not ready to start a professional online selling, so this can be a good chance to put your hand on a game that could be difficult to find in your usual game store. 
  • If you made an offer to receive a copy of the game and you like to have the game signed by the author you must simply ask, but you will receive the box unwrapped. 

Risks & Challenges

  • This is a flexible campaign. It means that you will get your stuff also if the goal is not reached. 
  • When the crowd-funding campaign is over, we'll be ready to send you  what you payed for almost immediately.
  • Deliveries are estimated by the end of November. If you like to make an original Christmas gift, that's a perfect timing!
  • Delivery cost must be payed separately and depends on the country where you live. We are hard working on finding the best prices and we'll do our best to satisfy any special request you can have, managing every single delivery.

Other Ways You Can Help

  • If you don't want to contribute, you should talk about this project to your friends. There are so many card game fans in the world...
  • Don't forget the Indiegogo share tools! Your support to every single campaign can improve the chance to have new ideas available for the entire community.
  • Because this is our very first crowdfunding campaign we don't have great experience about international deliveries of this kind. Any suggestion about a way to lower the delivery prices from Italy is very welcome.

Reviews


The game is really nice: it has all the deepness of standard Scopone with some nice twist. 

A real nice opportunity to gamers to learn one of the best traditional Italian card games.
