Roll Camera!: The Filmmaking Board Game
You are urgently needed on set!
The lights are melting the costumes, the camera assistant ran off with the star, and we're burning through time and money faster than 35mm film at 120 fps -- this movie production is a total disaster!! But luckily...we've got YOU.
Roll Camera! is a cooperative game for 1-4 players in which you take a major role like director, producer, or star, and must shoot a film before running out of schedule and budget. Roll your crew dice, assign them to actions, and complete the scene card patterns to finish your film.
This is the Kickstarter, CLAPPER BOX version with the GameTrayz film reel insert, including all unlocks & upgrades from the original campaign, and all updates from the 2nd printing.

2. Most of our prices include VAT at 20%. Meeple Stars are not earned on the VAT

3. Cover charge payments and food and drink purchases at the café do not qualify for
Meeple Stars.
4. Meeple Stars can be redeemed either during webstore checkout or when purchasing games
at the café. Each discount can only be applied to a single purchase. If the value of the item is less than the discount amount, the remaining balance will be forfeited.
5. Discounts cannot be used for shipping costs, only for merchandise.

Customer Reviews
This was most definitely an impulse buy, as I saw it on the Thirsty Meeples newsletter and happened to be in store the same week. BGG had it reviewed at 7.6/10, which was encouraging to see as well.
In the next 36 hours after buying it I had played it twice, both times with completely new-to-game players, and both sessions were commented on by each group as being great fun, and challenging. So, yes, it is a HIT.
Several things I really like about this game. First, it's a co-operative game, but there is always only one person holding the Production Schedule per turn, and whether or not you agree with their decision, they have the final say. So, despite me protesting loudly that we should not bet the remainder of the Production budget on the horses to get us out of a financially tight spot, the dumb ass got to do it! This means you will always feel like your voice gets heard - "Quiet on set...dammnit"
Second, because each character in the production crew has different abilities (which are open to see but benefit from the rest of the crew being reminded how awesome they are), and every character also holds "Idea cards", which are secret until shared (in a Production meeting), the crew need to keep communicating often. You don't have the quiet periods where people not directly involved drop off (onto their phones for example).
Third, I felt the game was just loaded for you to naturally have fun. There are great mechanics which interplay and make the overall task challenging even if the individual parts might feel quite simple, and the way the problems can hit you exactly at the point when they have most chance to throw a spanner in the whole damn works...especially if you ignored the first one, then accepted the second, and were then floored completely by the third, which combined with the second one now makes succeeding highly unlikely until you head them down.
