From the campaign:
Imagine you could embody a hero character with the power to challenge and embarrass your friends. But be careful, for those same friends wield powerful items that can change the game at any moment!
Combined with a competitive leveling system and a vindictive damage system, this is BARPIG - The unholy result of a one night stand between card-based role-playing games and a mostly ridiculous party.
Oh, and there will be pigs…
The Kickstarter campaign is up and running now. It's set to go for another 28 days.
