"Chronos Conquest" on kickstarter

Hello,

this is an advertisement for a project on Kickstarter which has nothing to do with Dominion (besides being designed by a Dominion fan)

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/wittyeditions/chronos-conquest

This is a bizarre game. It's very fast (less than 5 minutes) and plays in real time, so it's quite frantic. But there is diplomacy and strategy inside. The core is a very original auction-like mechanism where the "money" is replaced by time. You flip sandtimers onto stacks of cards and gain the top card when the timer is over. If several sandtimers are on the same card, the player who is ready to wait longest will gain it !

Each games features a "kingdom" of 6 gods (among 40) and 2 cities (among 12), so there is a lot of replayability. Ah, and this is a common point with Dominion: I balanced the game in such a way that if you ask a question like "Is Apollo/Aphrodite/Hermes/... a good card ?", the answer should be "it depends on the kingdom !"
