Dreadquarters is a new tower defense-inspired tabletop game where players defend a shared supervillain lair. The game combines tactical gameplay with comedic elements of villains cohabiting. It is set to launch on Kickstarter with various extras available.
Dreadquarters allows players to take on the role of villains, as referenced by Tim Curry's quote, 'Heroes are boring.' In this upcoming tabletop game, participants defend their shared lair against heroes, emphasizing tactical play in a tower defense style. The game's description highlights the comedy arising from villains sharing space.
The Kickstarter campaign will offer several extras to backers, including a Villain Deck Expansion, a Neoprene Playmat, 10 Enamel Pins, Art Prints and an Art Book, Stickers and Themed Tuck Boxes, and an “Insolence” Plush Mascot. These items aim to enhance the supporter experience beyond the core game.
Published on February 25, 2026, the announcement positions Dreadquarters as a fresh take on villain-centric gameplay in the tabletop genre. No specific launch date for the Kickstarter beyond 'coming to Kickstarter' is detailed in the sources.
