Any 80s kid worth his or her salt had the amazing Indiana Jones-inspired three-dimensional board game “Fireball Island,” which pit up to four adventurers against a giant evil lava-spewing idol in their quest to capture the titular island’s treasure. Now independent board game company Restoration Games has revived the white-knuckle classic with a new design and expansions for backers of its Kickstarter campaign.

Almost immediately after launching this morning, the crowdfunding effort for “Fireball Island: The Curse of Vul-Kar” surpassed its $250,000 goal– and as of this writing there’s still thirty days left to go if you want to get your pledge in.

Kickstarter rewards at various levels include the base game and four expansions. “Fireball Island: The Curse of Vul-Kar” is expected to ship to backers in November, 2018, with the game likely becoming available through retailers soon afterward.
