It's that time again when we look at the successful Kickstarters of the week, and although we don't have as many as last time, we do have some interesting games to show you that have hit the goal. Games such as Hand of Fate and The Slaughter hit a good target, so it looks as if next year and the year after is going to be full of fun, what with Christmas not being far away.
