I like the board game's premise as it sticks to the game's vision pretty faithfully, reminds me of Clue, The Resistance, and a few other tabletop games I've played. $60 is a bit steep for the Special Edition though. This might be the first KS campaign I back so I'm thinking about it.
I do hope it reaches the stretch goals because they sound really really good. If I don't end up backing it, I would definitely buy the game at some point when it comes out eventually. 50K is a solid milestone that can be reached easily.
