Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Miniature Game: City Fall From IDW Games

Posted on by Leave a comment

IDW Games has announced that they’re following up their board game Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Shadows of the Past with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Miniature Game: City Fall.

Continuing the adventure from TMNT: Shadows of the Past, the tabletop miniatures game launches on Kickstarter in October and will be an action-packed stand-alone expansion with new miniatures, tiles, and Adventure Comics for TMNT fans and miniature game players.

TMNT: City Fall will be a stand-alone co-operative game, but it can also be combined with TMNT: Shadows of the Past to create an expanded game experience. Kevin Wilson returns to oversee development of the game, while Pete Walsh and Dan Lansdown, founders and admins of the Shadows of the Past Community, will join the team to take the lead on design, including the oft-asked-for A.I. rules to allow for fully cooperative game play.

The Kickstarter will be packed with new miniatures, characters, tiles, adventures, and more!
