Illuminati: New World Order

KDLadage · 11-27-2020, 06:39 PM

Hi! Back when this game was released, I managed to get my hands on two copies of the One With Everything box. Beyond those two, I had many cards I collected, purchased cards from the various expansions, and so on. It was (and is) a great game. Over the years, that collection was lost due to moves, and some unfortunate events. But that is not the point.

What I would like to know is if there is a chance that Steve Jackson Games might revisit this gem? Would a new edition of the collectable / deck construction version of Illuminati ever see the printer? I ask because I just looked at what the old One With Everything goes for on eBay, and let's just say that the prices there were a bit steep.

Thanks in advance.

The Kickstarter for a video game version launched right after you posted...

The $130 level has all the original cards digitally and a “viewer” for them.

A few of the higher levels have actual sets of cards. This is as close as ye will get on a reprint I think!

The kickstarter campaign is being run by Derek Pearcy, who also worked on INWO back in the day.

ILCO will be a video game for 1 to 6 players for desktop and tablets through Steam, as well as on Google Play and the Apple App Store.

"We plan to open the game for Early Access by June 2021, with a full launch in August. If we meet our Kickstarter goal, we will begin releasing the three seasons in October 2021. Each season will feature at least 20 cards, each bound by a common theme."

PS: Nice work on the 30th Anniversary edition of The Arcanum.

Thank you very much!

Yes, I will check out the Kickstarter. Really hoping for physical cards, though. :)

I backed the Kickstarter when this conversation was last updated.

But now that Kickstarter has been cancelled. So.... no luck there.

I don't know why SJG has not made an INWO Living Card Game yet, either on their own or licensed to Fantasy Flight Games.
