It’s game night at your house and you’ve got a bunch of restless friends chomping at the bit to play something new and exciting. The answer is simple: ready your toxic bite and prep your skull for a head-butt, because “Monster Mania” has you covered. Within minutes, you’ll be grappling, punching, kicking, and monstering your way to victory as if your Godzilla VHS collection depended on it. The game has already launched on Kickstarter and is looking for your help to make it a success. I’ve already covered the game via a written preview and I have to say, it brought back some fond memories of when I used to play “Rampage” on the NES.

Josh McMurray, owner of Meet Me At The Table Games, offered the following:
Monster Mania is a city smashing, earth crashing card game for 1-6 players where you’ll play the role of massive monsters that are bent on destroying everything and everyone around them! In this homage to monster movies, you will use heavy strategy (emphasis on heavy!), throw your weight around as the world becomes your arsenal (there are 74 different cards in the game!), utilize resource management, hand management, take that, and play punishing combos! Each turn, you can play Monsters including huge robots, insects, and dinosaurs, play Environmentals such as semi trailers, taxi cabs, and buildings to either gain resources or deal outright damage, play Counters from your hand to sway the tide of battle in your favor, play and activate Supports along with military force and radiation to boost your power and heal your monsters, and launch uniquely devastating attacks! Monster Mania gameplay includes free for all, co-op, and solo modes as well as challenges that each player can try to achieve as they play; each game comes with 210 cards, 6 instruction cards, 6 playmats, 142 tokens, and 1 full color rulebook.
All backers of 50$ and higher will receive a digital download of a 40+ track Monster Mania soundtrack to make their battles even more epic! Here are some song samples:
