Yesterday, Mega Crit launched a Kickstarter campaign for Slay the Spire: The Board Game’s Downfall expansion, and unsurprisingly, it smashed its funding goal in an incredible 10 minutes.

The project required $50,000 in funding before April 9, but at the time of writing it has already secured more than $2,500,000 from over 13,000 backers.

If you’re still looking to back the project, there are six levels of support which all come with their own price points and extra goodies like the ones below. These are the Downfall Pledge, Downfall Collector’s, Collector’s Pledge, Downfall All-in, Collector’s Bundle, and Heart’s All In.

Some of the exclusive goodies that we’d be itching to get our hands on include branded playmats, card sleeves, tokens, and more.

This expansion to the board game adaptation is based on the popular Slay the Spire mod of the same name. Most interestingly, it allows you to play as some of the game’s most infamous bosses including Slime Boss, Hexaghost, Hermit, and Guardian.

It’s worth noting that Downfall doesn’t act as a standalone expansion and you’ll need to own a copy of the base game. Luckily, if you’re planning on backing the project, you can add a copy to your pledge as an add-on.

The Downfall expansion isn’t the only bit of awesome Slay the Spire merch we have received recently. To celebrate the success of Slay the Spire 2, the original’s soundtrack was re-released on vinyl with gorgeous new artwork from Nimit Malavia and four new tracks.
