Publisher and developer Klei Entertainment has partnered with Glass Cannon Unplugged, a tabletop game studio to bring an official board game adaptation for the acclaimed open-world survival craft title, Don’t Starve.

Called Don’t Starve: The Board Game, it transports 1-4 players into the relentless and unpredictable nightmare world of the Constant. In this distant and ominous realm, magic and science intertwine, creating a treacherous environment where players must navigate challenging obstacles and confront a pantheon of malevolent entities.

Players take on the roles of iconic characters from the game, working together to overcome various challenges and strive for survival. The board game encourages strategic thinking and cooperation as players strive to outsmart fate, maintain sustenance, and merely stay alive in the unforgiving environment. You can even play it solo.

With its emphasis on player choice, dynamic combat, and open-world exploration in both night and day conditions, Don’t Starve: The Board Game is poised to take players to new heights of immersion. The game’s visual design perfectly captures the essence of the whimsical art style beloved by fans of the franchise, providing a seamless blend of realism and fantasy.

The upcoming board game will be designed by Rafa? Pieczy?ski, the lead developer of the highly acclaimed and multi-award-winning Frostpunk: The Board Game. Additionally, Jakub Wi?niewski, known for his work on This War Of Mine and Frostpunk: The Board Game, will provide narrative direction for the game. Natanel Vo-Apfel, known for Into the Outside: Prelude, will also contribute to the game design.

Don’t Starve: The Board Game will be made available through a Kickstarter campaign that will fully exploit the source material’s creative potential. A wide range of content will be made available through expansions, add-ons, and future retail releases. It will be launched around the end of Q3 2024.

The Kickstarter page will be publicly viewable on 27 March at 5:00 PM EST/ 28 March at 5:00 AM GMT+8.
