In comparison, $165.3m (£126.9m) was pledged to successful tabletop projects in 2018, with $192m (£147.4m) raised by the Games category as a whole - making tabletop’s share a similar proportion of around 86%. In total, the Games category made $208.4m (£160m) in 2019 - meaning that tabletop projects accounted for 85% of the money raised by successful Games projects, blowing the $16.3m (£12.5m) raised by video games out of the water.

ICO Partners’ look at the Games category (which includes both tabletop and video games) on Kickstarter during 2019 revealed that the last near-decade has seen the amount pledged to successfully funded tabletop projects alone grow by almost one hundred times, from just under $2 million (£1.5m) in 2011 to $176.4m (£135m) last year.

Tabletop crowdfunding campaigns made $176 million on Kickstarter last year - more money than ever before - according to a new report.
