INTRODUCCIÓ
INTRODUCCIÓ

Calçotada Wars is a quick game in which who eats more calçots wins. A group of friends gets together to make a "calçotada".

One of them sets a challenge to see who can eat more calçots (spring onions). They divide what they bought peacefully. But one starts being greedy and the attitude spreads. "Give me a bit of sauce, give me some wood". Now, you'd better take care that they don't trick you! Cook as many calçots as you can and eat them before the ingredients are gone. It is said you shouldn't play with food, but this is the exception. Let's play dirty to win!

COM ES FA UNA CALÇOTADA?
COM ES FA UNA CALÇOTADA?

2 to 6 players with game plays from 20 min to 45.

The goal consists in creating sets of calçots, starting with wood, which it is recommendable to have a high value. Right after you can set the fire to put a grill, some calçots and the sauce. If you can keep the value high until the end, you made ​​a good job. If you decrease it just because you do not get the right card, it's ok, but what matters is the value with which you finish the series. Because the secret of good calçots is the sauce.

IMATGE DE LA SÈRIE
IMATGE DE LA SÈRIE

Remember: Eating quickly is as important as eating high value food bundles!

To get cards you can take them from the pile and from other players' hands. You can know what ingredients they have but not their values​​. You can take the risk and steal what you need, but if you create too many enemies you'll end up paying.

Cards like the wine jug and tweezers (attack cards) let you to knock out an opponent next turn or to take a card already played on the table. You can always defend yourself with a good slice of bread with tomato or an apron (defense cards).

The game contains a total of 110 cards, including ingredient cards and action cards. The right and necessary to set a battle with food at home.

If you want to know more details about how to play, you can see the INSTRUCTIONS or the digital file of the game at BoardGameGeek.

CALOTADA: PATRIMONI INTERNACIONAL
CALOTADA: PATRIMONI INTERNACIONAL

Because the spirit of concord is the main in a calçotada, ironically Calçotada Wars wants to cross borders to explain otherwise. The game has no dependence on language during the game (not including text in cards) and presents his rulebook in Catalan, Spanish, English, French, German and Chinese to make it playable all over and to present everybody this festive meal.

IMATGE CÒMIC
IMATGE CÒMIC

We think it is not enough exporting abroad this Catalan feast food. We want to do it because we love how you use your hands and move your head like a bird to gobble a large onion with sauce. But also we want to present it as a playful game! We think about bringing it to fairs like the Nuremberg in Germany in 2015 (January 28 - February 4). We can explain that a 'calçotada' turned into a battle is doubly fun, and a battle cannot be fierce if you eat onions.

RECURSOS I CALENDARI
RECURSOS I CALENDARI

To carry out this project, besides from our own resources, we have been sponsored by the company Conserves Ferrer that joins us in this adventure.

However, we decided to launch this new crowdfunding campaign for two reasons: one is practical and another emotional.

The practical reason is based on helping us achieve funds to move forward with the initial expenses, which are not few.

The emotional reason is that it reminds us that Catalan Games (with the project La Puta i la Ramoneta was born thanks to the patronage and support from many people. If you like this new crazy idea, please join!

What we obtain in this crowdfunding will be used in:

  • 30% graphic design and illustration

  • 39% initial costs of production and promotion of the game

  • 10% shipments

  • 21% taxes

Since the graphic design phase is already completed we are able to launch it directly to production without delay. This will shorten significantly the production time and we really believe that the game could be ready to send in mid-November. It can be an excellent Christmas gift and so may also be present in calçotades the next year!

CATALAN GAMES: COMPLINT PROMESES
CATALAN GAMES: COMPLINT PROMESES

Catalan Games was born in 2012 with the aim of creating different fun from genuine Catalan themes. The first game, "La Puta i la Ramoneta: el joc de la política catalana" sold more than 2500 units last Christmas season. We promised their patrons to send copies to the Catalan Parliament to pressure politicians to abandon the attitude we explain in the game.

Surprisingly enough, the catalan president Artur Mas played the game a few days prior to decide the date for the independence referendum, but we will never know if the game pushed him to make this last step (who knows!). Now, Catalan Game members are committed to a new project which shows the benefits of a Calçotada and to turn it into a fun experience for all the calçots meal fans.

    Hola David,

    El juego tiene 110 cartas de tamaño Bridge (58x88mm). Para este tamaño deberian servirte las fundas mayday Chimera size, aunque las Eurogame tambien servirian, quedando un ppco de funda sobrante.

    Hola, me han regalado el juego, ¿cuál es el tamaño de las cartas para comprar unas fundas mayday?

    El problema es que con nuestro centro logístico el precio mínimo de envío a las Baleares (14€) es para bultos de hasta 2kg, independientemente del peso del paquete. Por eso, sumando los 16€ del juego con descuento mas el envío a 14€, sale a 30€.

    En realidad, por el mismo precio de envío podríamos enviar 6 unidades ya que el juego pesa unos 0,3kg.

    Esperamos haber puesto un poco de luz a tus dudas.

    Por que los gastos a Baleares son tan altos?

    Cuesta igual un juego a Baleares (30 €), como comprar dos juegos (30 €).

    No se, para esos me sale mas a cuenta pedir un pack restaurante o un pack tienda sin serlo y despues pagarte el coste del envio.

#04 / Objectiu aconseguit! | Reto conseguido!

Moltes gràcies!

Ja queden menys de 24h pel final de la campanya i ha estat tot un èxit! Estem molt contents i agraïts per tot el suport i la confiança que ens han fet els i les mecenes, així com tots aquells que ens han donat un cop de mà.

Un cop més, moltes gràcies a tots!

Nosaltres hem estat treballant i hem collat tots els cargols perquè els engranatges de producció giressin el més ràpid possible. Amb aquest projecte hem pres el risc de tirar endavant abans de tancar la campanya precisament per a poder garantir que el joc pugui arribar ben ràpid als punts de venda per la campanya de nadal.

No obstant això, volem assegurar que tots els nostres mecenes puguin rebre la seva recompensa el més aviat possible. Així doncs intentarem que les recompenses s'enviïn no més tard d'una setmana després del tancament de la campanya.

Demà enviarem un formulari per recollir les dades dels mecenes.

Atentament,

Equip de Catalan Games


Muchas gracias!

Últims 10 dies de campanya

Encetem l'últim tram de la campanya amb pràcticament l'objectiu aconseguit (falten menys de 350€ i resten encara més de 10 dies), cosa que ens permet pecar d'optimistes i així poder donar-vos una bona notícia.

A Catalan Games complim sempre amb les nostres promeses i amb els objectius que ens plantegem. És per això que us anunciem que ja s'ha enviat el joc a produir.

I us preguntareu: Però si encara no heu aconseguit l'objectiu. Perquè ho feu?

Molt fàcil, per poder garantir a tots els mecenes i a les botigues que ja esperen el joc que començaran a rebre les seves recompenses a partir de la segona setmana de novembre, i perquè tenim la convicció que tancarem la campanya amb èxit.


Últimos 10 días de campaña

Iniciamos el último tramo de la campaña con prácticamente el objetivo conseguido (faltan menos de 350 € y quedan aún más de 10 días), lo que nos permite pecar de optimistas y así poder daros una buena noticia.

#02 / Calçotada/Presentació dins l’FNAC de Plaça Catalunya | Calçotada/Presentación en la FNAC de Plaza Cataluña

Una xerrada sobre el joc ‘Calçotada Wars’: amb jocs i calçots de debò.

INICIEM LA TEMPORADA DELS CALÇOTS A L’OCTUBRE

A les 19.00 el passat divendres al FNAC Triangle a Plaça Catalunya començava l’esdeveniment de presentació del segon joc de Catalan Games, “Calçotada Wars: amb el menjar no s’hi juga”. Es tractava d’una cita esperada i molt singular que havia d’ajuntar gastronomia i cultura catalana amb jocs. Ho faria amb un àpat dins del propi centre comercial, convidats de luxe i unes quantes partides del joc de cartes en què cadascú es fa la pròpia calçotada.

L’acte va començar amb l’expert en jocs Oriol Ripoll desgranant exemples històrics de jocs quotidians. Va destacar la virtut del calçot i la seva salsa (en clara al·lusió al patrocini de Conserves Ferrer, els membres de… read more

Benvolguts i benvolgudes!

Després de la primera setmana de campanya volíem compartir amb tots vosaltres les nostres sensacions, que son molt positives.

Primer de tot volem agrair als nostres primers mecenes la seva col·laboració. L'acollida que ha tingut el projecte en aquests primers dies és molt afalagadora.

Això de passar de 3 xifres a 4 ens ha fet engreixar una mica. Voleu calçots??? ;D

També aprofitem per donar-vos com a primícia aquesta review del joc que han publicat a 5 minutos por juego on l'autor us dona les claus per a jugar!
