If you love all things Borderlands and board games, then you basically have no choice but to hop on this project! At the time of writing this, the project is almost up to a million dollars, which is just wild for a Kickstarter!

Borderlands: Mister Torgue’s Arena of Badassery Game
This game looks super fun and if you’ve ever played the video games, you realize just how ridiculous it can get! Let’s hear what they have to say about the game:
An officially licensed cooperative, board game for 1 to 4 players, in which you and your friends must defeat the hordes of bandits, skags, and other challenges Mr. Torgue throws at you to prove you are Ultimate Badasses.
You can also download the rulebook here, but just keep in mind this is a “work in progress” book. So things might change.
Pledges
There are two main pledges to go with and for how much you get, they are both pretty good deals! Just note though, this pledge doesn’t look like it has stretch goals, you have to go with the bigger pledge for that.
