Astoria Games announces the launch of its Kickstarter campaign for Making Monsters, a thrilling board game where players embody mad scientists competing in the notorious Mad Science Fair. Combining strategy, creativity, and dark humor, Making Monsters offers players the chance to craft monstrous creatures, upgrade their laboratories, and outwit rivals in a quest for scientific supremacy.

Set in a whimsical yet eerie world of mad science, Making Monsters immerses players in a competitive environment where the stakes are high, and the experiments are even higher. Players will collect monstrous parts, devise their creations, and showcase their genius in front of an awestruck crowd. With simultaneous turns, high replayability, and stunning artwork from industry veterans, the game promises an engaging and visually captivating experience.
