- Game Description -
Kingdom Death: Monster is a fully cooperative tabletop hobby game experience. Set in a unique nightmarish world devoid of most natural resources, you control a settlement at the dawn of its existence. Fight monsters, craft weapons and gear, and develop your settlement to ensure your survival from generation to generation.
Campaign System
Embark alone or with up to 3 friends (5 with game variant) on a 5-30-lantern-year campaign, with each year consisting of a cycle of hunt, showdown, and settlement phases. The settlement phase is an intricate civilization building game in which you spend very limited resources to build buildings, research new technologies, train your warriors, and set up your strategy for survival. During the hunt, you'll encounter a series of stories in a "choose your own adventure" style journey through various events and encounters. Finally, when you meet the monster you're pursuing, you'll engage it in an a massive arena-style battle where only one party is going to survive. If your party lives, you'll be able to bring the spoils back home to use in expanding your settlement.
Monster AI System
Each of the 7 monsters included are controlled by their own pair of decks that scale to 3 levels of difficulty (except for the final encounter, which has only 1 level and it's HARD!). Every encounter, even with the same monster, is highly variable and no two showdowns will resolve the same way. Players will have to plan their gear and keep their minds sharp to prevail.
Gear System
In Kingdom Death: Monster, survivors will craft gear from resources earned from defeating monsters or found on their hunt. Each survivor has a 3x3 gear grid. Selection and arrangement of your gear cards is critical, as many provided bonuses and activate special rules when aligned correctly.
Story Event System
40+ Story Events plus over 100 hunt encounters will shape and guide your campaign. Story Events detail important evolutions in your civilization, introduce new monsters, and provide rich detail for your campaign. Some will trigger automatically as you progress through the campaign, but most will be entirely based on choices players make.
Story Events cover everything from setting up and fighting a monster to key events that happen within the overall story. Some are triggered directly from the timeline and others from choices you make in game.

Beautiful.
So brave of Adam to show us that emotional side and he just oozes complete passion for his game and to have everyone enjoy it.
he is a good guy
Spent $600 at their booth buying all echoes of death, a couple single models, more stone bases and some more dice. Was kinda having buyers remorse spending that much, but when I got home from the con my Gambler's chest was waiting at my door, and I am all hyped again.
Great interview! Watching Adam in this interview, especially at the end, is why I will always be a supporter of KDM. Yes, sometimes things don't always go as planned and delivery times might stretch out further than we would like, but the guy always delivers unlike some other companies. Now to continue the agonizing wait for my Gambler's Chest to arrive!
I am not the hugest kdm fan, but i recognize what poots created, which is basically defining a new genre.
That being said, bc im not so obsessed with the game, the wait wasnt that bad to me. If Poots was Best Buy, id be asking where my game is. He is not, he is a small designer bringing a very unique experience to life. Why anyone expects that to not have delays, even considerable ones is silly to me.
I will be keeping my GC, looking forward to more from them.
Haven't played 1 second of KDM or even had a thought of getting into the beast of a game.... this interview really swayed me into thinking about starting the journey. Passion is contagious and always prevails!
He makes amazing things and is a really incredibly person.
His passion definitely translates into his designs dude, KDM is a labor of love and it shows. It’s an amazing product
That was really great.
It was beautiful to see how much he cares about the community and appreciate the support he got.
Wanted to give him an hug.❤
Thanks for the interview. Glad hes looking at making it easier to make future expansions one at a time. I'm looking forward to seeing wave 4 (or however it shakes out) and i definitely want to see what he does after. Additionally, i really appreciate his sincerity at the end there. Its hard dealing with success as an ambitious creative, timelines don't end up as you think they should and people get angry. He hasn't let that stop him from delivering, even if it was late.
He is a quality human.
Thank you for taking the time to interview Mr. Poots. A very revealing and well-conducted interview.
Thanks so much
Regardless of actually playing all of this stuff, the connection and devotion Adam has is all I care about when I think of supporting this project. The fact that he ended up in tears while reviving all his team effort through this continuing journey is what makes this brand unique. Its simply not just another product, its a whole experience and, why not, a way of life. Give the best, don´t settle for less, and take the neccesary time for doing so, the community will understand and have your back always. Thank you Quackalope for this great interview. Thanks Adam for this big beautiful beast that is KDM
Man the ending of this interview really connected with me and made me so emotional. Really felt it
Agreee
Great questions and an awesome interview! For backers like myself these are the rare moments in which we get to see Adam talking about his Kingdom Death universe, his view on things, the Kickstarter campaign and what the future (or I should say darkness) has in store for us KDM survivors. Thank you Quack!
So glad I could share!
That was an amazing interview, thanks Quackalope and thanks Adam Poots for this game. Wow, that was a powerful interview, especially at the end there.
Dear Jesse, dear Sir, that was an amazing interview! Thank you so much! I am a late-comer to the KDM Journey and bought the Game, Pre-ordered Gambler's Chest and Campaigns of Death 2020 during Black Friday and Christmas.
I fell in love with the game so much that I collected all big expansions, paint the minis and build tons of extras ^^
My thanks go to Mr Poots for creating a Work of Art well worth the wait. A great journey to be part of even if I was not part of the original KS. So great that this world lives and that Mr Poots stuck with it despite of obstacles like Covid and family crisis. Really looking forward what further concepts will be explored and so excited to receive my Gambler's Chest soon :D
Great interview Jesse ! So nice to have news from Poots in person ! Thanks to you both !
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks for the interview! Really cool to see where the game is going. Our channel is painting and playing for the first time this Sunday so this was quite helpful.
Thanks for the interview! It’s so great to get to understand Adam better.
Glad I could capture it
Even more excited to play the copy my friend is getting. He has everything already commissioned and painted and is doing the same for the Gamblers chest. It's going to be one EPIC campaign and I cannot wait for the memories. He's clearly so passionate about the experience he's created and this was an amazing interview.
Wow. . . I want to see that copy!
Thanks for asking Adam some of my questions man, even just a chance that one day I’ll be chilling in that Ice zone is good enough for me.
Hahah XD right
and we are going to play it! i love kingdom death and have introduced to so many of friends and they all have loved it .... I dont mind waiting so long for it to arrive because this project carries lots of love from Poots and the team and I believe in them ... keep going
Such a remarkable game!
Wow! That’s great. I saw Bra Mithra’s interview as well and you really got a Lot of good commentary and discuss Union in yours. As a relatively new KDM fan (playing my first campaign now as we speak (just beat Butcher L2)), I love that we got a bit of a shout out. Adam should be very proud of what’s he’s done.
He is really something
@@user-ye5rd9vt6pCare to explain like I'm 5?
Thank you for the interview and new information... its been a long time coming things seem to be back on track after the release of GC.
So glad we are moving again!
Amazing interview! A lot of very interesting info about the immediat and far future.
I have the utmost respect for Adam, easily one of my favorite game designers and just an all-around humble genuine guy. I really wish I stopped to chat with him at the con this year, I saw him hanging around the booth on Thursday but he was talking to someone and I didn't want to hover, so I told myself I'd come back later and then never found the time.
Jesse, big shoutout for giving Adam that really heartfelt compliment at the end. I can only imagine how much it means to hear that from someone who has so much passion for something he created. I think Adam nailed it when he said at the end of the day it's not about the money. Leaving an impact on people's lives is something no amount of money can replace.
28:26 Happy hearing his stance on this. It always feels like certain people just need the numbers to be perfect when it doesn't need to be. Dude is telling us a story, let him do it. So the bone spear or whatever doesn't make sense, maybe there's a reason for that. So the silk bomb isn't that great, oh well. Not everything needs to be completely balanced or even exciting. Sometimes it can be incredibly situational just because. Especially in a game where people are scrounging in the darkness for bits of stuff to survive. Things are gonna get messy in a world like that. Results are going to be chaotic. I think these weird design choices are playing into that idea. I think that's cool.
1000% my feelings
"If there was always the right path, everyone would drive that car and that's not fun". Some people feel that way about elements of KDM, and that's Ok too. They are also probably technically correct. People have different ability in breaking down costs/benefits of choices in strategy games, and for some people it's too clear that certain choices are not viable. In addition, there are design decisions like the Spidicules armor being locked behind a lvl 3, and that's unwarranted. I also think the core concept of how speed works is a problem. I think Poots creativity more than makes up for what he lacks in technical balance. I accept that in some instances I'll have to have custom cards printed to make the strategy elements more dynamic. It's the sacrifice I make to the right side of my brain so that the left side can indulge in the amazing world Poots created.
If the goal is merely to win then maybe that would be all that mattered, but for most people playing this game it isn't. You beat a white lion by perfectly capitalizing on his weaknesses and using min/max gear im yawning. You kill a lv3 Atnas by slapping him with a giant fish while blind in both eyes and missing a leg and you get a custom model made to commemorate you and stories told of your glory for all time.
Thank you so much to both of you for this interview! Really great seeing the same setup as four years ago, makes me nostalgic but also excited for the future of this great game!
I had to go and look at the wood grain of my Distracted model to see the arms that I never noticed. My friend showed me KDM years back right after the 10th Anniversary models came out. I had to buy my own copy and it has become my all time favorite board game. KDM lead me to your channel and to the amazing world that Adam Poots has created and I can't wait for more releases and to see what the future and the story goes from here.
Good job on the interview Jesse, that was a good watch.
Thank you so much!
you cant imagine how much "senpai noticed me!" energy i had when you asked all my questions at the end lol.
XD hahah
This is a really beautiful interview. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I absolutely love seeing this side of Adam. As an independent creator I understand the hurdles and what it takes to make something as incredible as you want it to be. Cheers to KDM and Quackalope, to the challenges, and to the glory of what's to come.
Jesse thank you for asking my question about the CCG! I’m very excited to know they actually have something!
You bet!
There was a lot of exciting info but it felt like you were so focused on asking questions that at some points you were abruptly stopping Adam answering a question to switch to the next one faster. I would enjoy it in a more relaxed rhytm
I was taking up his time in the last 2 hours of the con. This is a hour interview and we had a lot of questions from the community. To be respectful to him + get to the questions I moved some parts forward. Naturally, a conversation like this could have and should take hours upon hours.
Completely new to KDM and about to start a campaign from a friends set, so I've been absorbing everything I can. REALLY cool to see both the passion and appreciation!
Great interview. Having only limited knowledge about KDM and the world it takes place in, I enjoyed this immensely. I knew this was a heavy and expensive game and I was not considering it. However after watching Adam talk about his game and seeing his desire to create the best experience he can as well as his feelings and appreciation at the videos end.....I know I have to look into this game to learn more. I look forward to your continued coverage on KDM.
Glad you enjoyed it! More and more to come :)
So glad I got into this amazing game, great interview Quack
So glad I got to do it!
I knew that was you I saw wandering the Dealer's hall on Sunday! Hope that you had a great time in my hometown!
You too!!
Ein fantastisches Interview mit Adam Poots, der unglaublich ambitioniert, ehrlich und menschlich rüberkommt und immer noch den Spaß und die Vision für sein Projekt hat, das uns sicher weiterhin viele epische Momente beim Spiel erleben lassen wird. Es ist immer noch und jetzt erst recht wieder mein Lieblingsspiel. Die Gambler‘s Chest als „Erweiterung“ ist unfassbar!!! Danke!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Amazing interview, well done!
This was a great interview, I’m so excited for the gamblers chest to arrive, and am so glad KDM is what brought me to the hobby and still my favorite game of all time. I’m very happy for Poots and his success and can’t wait to see what the future brings!
Welcome aboard!
@@Quackalope I’ve been playing since 2019 so I’ve been around for a little while, and have been watching your content since the early days. I appreciate it though!😂
:P can still say welcome - this nightmare is just begging!
You fuckin' guys! That was truly touching. You all heard the man, he wants us to play! God dammit I love this game!!!
Let's go play the game :)
@@Quackalope Great interview by the way, thank you so much for this
After having kept an eye on the original limited edition resin miniatures back in the days and actually not being all that fascinated by creations like the wet nurse, I’ve been an active part of this journey since the early days of the first kickstarter. I still can’t say I’d really like Adam, if I had the chance to get to know him, but I’ve always felt a strong respect for and connection to his dedication towards KD(M).
Maybe it was because of this appreciation for what kind of a maniac Adam seemed to be and never having perceived any attempts to hide that fact over all these years, that my acceptance of the long process actually never changed despite any frustrations, that I might have felt at times.
Seeing Adam showing his emotions about the project, that he obviously (at least to me) put so much love and effort in over the years, seems like a good reminder of how easy it is for disgruntled supporters to turn sour and to forget about the rich evidence, that Adam never took any part of the development process or the community’s support lightly.
I remember saying so in the comments of several KS updates and I wonder how many of those frustrated commenters would have caught a glimpse of at least that sincere strife for an awesome product, that (as GC now showed) would bring a lot of joy to people eventually.
So I wonder what difference it could have made, if those severely disappointed people had been treated to such a show of emotion back then.
Sure the most bitter and distrustful ones would have thought it a ruse, but I think some could have been swayed relatively easily by it.
he really does care
Great job Adam! Your tears are heard! One day I'll play your game.
Arrrrrrgggghhhhhh….. I was strong enough to walk away from this at Gencon but after watching this I have to buy it to support this guy.
Now I have to say that yhe ending of this interview took me by surprise. I always had the idea that he didn't care. Well, this interview changed my mind. He seems like a cool dude
He is possibly one of the coolest dudes in the industry. I've talked to him at Gencon as a random KDM fan a few times and he was super generous with his time. He never tried to rush the conversation and he was more than happy to chat about game design, KDM lore, other games he was checking out at the con, etc. I apologized for keeping him too long and he said it was totally fine and to stop by if I thought of any other questions lol. He does have a tendency to let his passion for his game override the part of his brain that says "hey there's only so much a person can do at one time," but he has good intentions and overdelivers more often than not.
Great interview. What a guy!!
Such a guy!
I love these interviews. Great Job
Thank you
I can't believe he was gracious enough to be interviewed ...standing ...for an hour !
Love these interviews, always wish he would go into more lore stuff.
That is part of the charm :)
Fantastic interview!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great job! Very interesting.
Glad I could do it!
Great job! You skipped one of my questions but I understand the time constraints.
After just finished watching the interview, all I want to say besides that it was great, is that I REALLY HOPE YOU GAVE HIM A HUG AFTER THE CAMERAS STOPPED ROLLING ❤
A very big hug!
Respect. Best way to convince me to buy a product and ill order the GC tonight to support a passionate creator who has made something truly remarkable.
Great interview!
Thank you!
@Jesse, Please edit Poots' gopro playthrough footage for him/us (along with some of your awesome b-roll of course)!
Maybe one day!
Was Adam talking about the physical showdown board comprised of plastic thats in development?
Yes, it is around :)
@@Quackalope I'm excited for it but I wonder how terrain will be handled - Will we just put the cardboard terrain on top of the plastic showdown board/tiles or is there a plan to have plastic terrain pieces that take the place of the cardboard?
I'm hearing audio and enjoying watching. :)
XD glad - not sure why those comments showed up!
Great interview, thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it!
If shipping and taxes weren't as high I would go all-in if or when the backerkit opens again. I really hope that there will be a warehouse in Europe in the near future. An oficial app is a very good idea.
Yes unfortunately no EU warehouse yet sigh - so bad for Black Friday purchases ^^.
However everything from Backerkit seems currently to be sent from within the EU (think it was the Netherlands) so there were reasonable shipping costs and only the ususal VAT.
great interview
If I was interested in getting into KDM, where do I start?
Base game
The 1.5 core box alone will give you dozens upon dozens of hours of content. If you like it and you decide you want more you can pick up some of the monster and nemesis expansions that appeal to you, or just jump into the Gambler's Chest once it's more widely available. The distribution model is more board game-style than miniatures-game style so you don't have to buy a bunch of different products to get the "full" experience or build up a collection of monsters like you would a Warhammer army. Most of the non-monster single miniatures you can buy either have minimal game content or no game content (the latter are targeted mostly at collectors and painters).
I'm hearing audio just fine
Thanks :)
How do I reach the discord channel mentioned?
I would gess through bgg?
Google lanterns reign
@@TheMedianGam3r Thanks bro!
What an exciting moment when you reach the end of the video. In the end, we are all just humans.
Wow... Adam is Awesome and humble... he's got my support... 🤯
Really hoping COD has the promo cards included, or that another pack is released with them.
I can't bring myself to drop $60+ to get an Indomitable Resource card for the White Lion. Beautiful mini or not, I have enough of them. I've grown tired of buying minis just to get a card. It would be sweet if they release an annual card pack that has all that year's promo cards in it.
Strong video. Very good interview. Poots is gorgeous.
Much appreciated
My house was burned down by a homeless person on Sunday, Gambler's Chest arrived today. I feel like I'm living by KDM rules every day now.
Thank you for this.
My pleasure!
I feel like if poots had a youtube channel and regularly went live doing an AMA it would resolve a ton of the salty ass people in this community. Im not one of them btw, they annoy me too. I dont care how warranted their complaints are. Imo of you wanted a game NOW, theres a target right up the street and you can pick from what is available, buy it and walk out of the store the same day. If that doesnt work and people want to keep crowdfundung games, than stfu, sit down and wait like a gentlemen.
The internet is full of the worst of us.
Oufff that ending !! Yep Im fan
I hate to admit it but i pledged in the original Kickstarter, I have over $1000 invested in the game/expansions, and i still have yet to start a campaign lol. This is the year thanks to receiving the GCE and having my excitement reignited
Brad Pitt turns around wearing a KDM bandana and is like: "Hey I'm Adam Poots."
I love the idea
@@Quackalope It would be so great lol
Thank you for this dude.
Any time!
You made Poots cry, shame on you 😂
We all did I think
Audio is perfectly fine for me that's pretty weird, i cannot help but stare at poots armpit lol
XD such is life
Yooooo im the Cyclops Knight guy!!! Lets goooo!
I'd love a CCG!
Quack
Nice Tie
Thnaks!
Amazing🎉
What is Adam holding?
ah, probably a mic.
Trust me the audio is there on the video
XD thanks
@@Quackalope anytime, just wanted to give you a piece of mind. Also I was waiting for this awesome interview with Adam Poots. Great Job!!
@@SniperinShadow Thanks so much - glad you enjoyed it!
Jesse it’s amazing to see doing this after so many years. Your love for this game is shining through just like it did years ago
Love you Poots
Poots proved them wrong. He delivered. And he delivered like nobody else could. Kudos.
Try to remember when you are interviewing to let the interviewee finish their thought. I can see that you were excited about asking questions, but you cut Adam off at various points instead of letting him finish and naturally flowing into follow-up questions. Don't ask the follow-up as soon as you think of it, wait, and then say something like "Going back to what you just said about..."
Time was a limiting factor - I held him for 60 min at the very end of the con and wanted to make sure we got the fan questions in. 100% go slower, when you have the lux of that time.
I think you’re misinterpreting the video this is not an interview there’s a conversation between two people I think Jesse did a fine job.
@@JasonSetley He came with not one but two lists of prepared questions. This was absolutely an interview.
He did do a decent job, but it could have been better, and I found myself distracted by the interruptions and so I offered constructive criticism. Many of his questions were good enough that Adam would have kept talking unprompted and it would have been a smoother conversation.
Your interview was great!
Thank you so much for doing this and sharing it with the community. Lot of great information and a lot of good questions.
I do have one comment related to this thread. I understand time was of the essence, but a lot of your time was spent qualifying your questions instead of letting Adam respond. I would recommend watching a couple episodes of Diary of a CEO and his interview technique. Obviously make it your own and I applaud you for your ongoing dedication to the Kingdom Death Community, but I think it would enhance your content when interviewing.
Thank you!
LONG LIVE POOTZ!!!!!!
I'm not getting any audio with the video.
There is certainly audio on it - check your devices?
Tried again and working fine now.
No idea what happened. Had audio on the ad, then nothing for the actual video. Oh well, all good now.
No audio?
But . . . there is audio
I'm not hearing any audio 🤔
. . . We have audio - not sure why you are not getting any. Checked multiple devices.
Same device and circumstances, but now i do have audio. Thanks for the quick response 😁
Wow … Thank you for that amazing interview … After the ATO fiasco I did not know if I ever could trust your content again … but I think that you‘ve learned a painful lesson … and you are damn talented … so, you got me back 😉
Glad to have you back - hopefully we can continue to display that we care and will continue to do our best.
Event cards exist with 3rd party developer with branching options. Highly recommend.
make kingdom death monster portable please.
how am i supposed to defend a $500 board game
