Button Shy Games ROVE Expansion Collection and Reprint is live on Kickstarter! Here are your discount details.
🕑 Added 2022-03-29 12:31:12 +0000 UTCROVE is a solo spatial puzzle game. In each game of ROVE, the player will face a series of mishaps that can only be solved by arranging the 6 module cards in a specific pattern. Moving a module requires Movement Points gained by discarding cards from hand for the listed amount. Players may gain additional Points if their current module layout matches the pattern shown on the discarded card.
Each module costs 1 Movement Point per activation and uses its own unique movement style, such as only moving diagonally or pushing other modules a single space. Modules also have powerful single-use abilities that can help get players out of a tight spot. Properly timing these abilities -- as well as effectively using the limited number of Movement cards -- will help the player complete ROVE’s mission successfully.
As a member you will receive a discount, and all of the details are below. Any questions, just ask either in the comments here or on our Discord server.
The first important thing is the campaign link.

Here's how to pledge at Kickstarter as a member

Also a quick note: The ROVE Expansion Collection with the Reconfigured expansion will be offered as the Featured Game in an upcoming $20 Board Game of the Month Club package; they will not be included in packages for $10 and below.
This is a set of 3 new ROVE expansions, and more! Let's take a closer look at the Expansion Collection: Alien Activities, Icy Incidents and Cosmic Crisis.
Alien experiments may not sound friendly, but the local lifeforms have really souped up your tech with some unusual upgrades.
Alien Activities introduces new Movement cards which force all of your Modules to follow the movement rules for one specific Module.
ROVE units are not designed for subarctic temperatures. Keep those modules moving despite the frosty blasts.
Icy Incidents adds new Movement cards which freeze two of your Modules at a time. Frozen Modules cannot be moved directly, making them difficult to work around.
Emergency! Emergency! This planet is in peril and time is of the essence. Move quickly to avoid disaster!
Cosmic Crisis features two new game elements. First are anti-patterns, which work like the bonus patterns found on normal movement cards except that they need certain spaces to be empty. Second are the Crisis missions, urgent matters that must be resolved without using more than a single Movement card.
The ROVE: Reconfigured expansion is included with all pledges.
Download finished… Rewriting operating system… Enhancing core modules… Upgrade complete: Welcome to ROVE 2.0.
When playing with Reconfigured, you can play with the standard or Reconfigured version of each Module. These boosted Modules offer bigger – but not always better – effects to help you explore.
There are so many more details on the Kickstarter page, including all the information about an add-on wallet to hold any other expansions. Head over there for everything you need to know.

silly question. you've added base game as a pledge amount, $12 + $2 for empty wallet, (pledged $1 + $13.) which is the same as just the expansion + extra wallet. Where will that get sorted out that I wanted the base game with my $14, and not the expansions (as mentioned elsewhere I would eventually get the expansions as my monthly subscription)
Michael PN
Hmm, I could do that but I don't know anyone who has a copy of ROVE and lives in my area to give away, so there's that. Hopefully my pledge will work in the end.
Deborah Gard
Might be easier to get rove everything and give/trade your flora expansion to someone else , but that's just my opinion depending on where you live
Michael PN
So my case may be unique: I got Fascinating Flora from the monthly club, but not the base game (requested another wallet game at the time). I'm planning to get the following if possible: ---Pledged @ $1 level as a $25+ Patreon with: -Empty ROVE Expansion Collection Wallet [$2] -Additional copy ROVE: Expansion Collection [$12] -ROVE (Base Game) [$12] --Total: $27 [Shipping cost is negated due to Patreon level] If my calcs are correct, I'm just saving $1 if I already have Flora and wanna grab everything else.

Hello - I just joined the Patreon this month so I actually haven't been charged yet. Is it ok for me to back the Kickstarter and get the discount before I'm initially charged by Patreon?
Robin Keller
Thanks a lot for the fast reply and answer. Im looking forward to it then ^^
Button Shy
Yes, the Rove Expansion Collection and Reconfigured will be a featured game for supporters at all $20+ level.
Robin Keller
Hi Im sorry if the question has already been answered, but I don't really see it. I am a 26$ Patreon, so will the ROVE Expansion collection be available through the BGotM, as a monthly reward or will my only chance at getting the Expansion collection be through the Kickstarter? That would be a shame for me, since I'm from switzerland which would make the shipping way more expensive then the collection itself. I really like ROVE and hope it will be made available through BGotM at a later time. Kind Greetings from switzerland ^^
Button Shy
Yes. Pledge for shipping as your bonus support (US $1, UK $1.50, Other International $3 for 1 or 2 empty wallets) and use the add-ons to include the empty wallet. The Patreon discount is only applicable on wallet games, so would not apply here.
The_Syndicate_1013
Is it possible for $25 BGotM members to pledge in this KS for only the empty wallet(s)? If so, how much is shipping? Would $5 Patreon discount still apply?
Button Shy
You'd either need to purchase at the website using your club discount or pledge for everything now and switch the ROVE Expansion Collection for a different game when it's featured.
Dr. Foo
Ok, and since the "ROVE Expansion Collection with the Reconfigured expansion" will be the featured game in an upcoming BGotMC package (and I will likely choose that option), what would be the best way for me to get the base game and the Fascinating Flora expansion (either by pledging now through the current KS or now/later through your website)?
Button Shy
@Joseph Lee - please be sure to pay shipping if you only pledge for add-ons. The club discount is only for an order including a wallet. It's easier if you pledge and then switch out the game when it's featured.
Asher
It’s okay, I’m just going to do as suggested above and just swap out the Rove expansions when they hit BGOTM ☺️
Joseph Lee
Not sure if they are doing it this time, but they usually have a code they offer when they are running a Kickstarter that lets you get stuff from their webstore.
Joseph Lee
Thanks.
Joseph Lee
But I think you will get the expansions for free in a future month if you are at $20. So the extra wallet would be the only thing you need to separately buy.
Button Shy
3: ROVE in one wallet, the ROVE Expansion Collection in a second wallet and a spare empty wallet.
Button Shy
That's correct.
Button Shy
That is correct.
Button Shy
Yes, the expansion collection is in a wallet. An extra wallet gives you a place to put the Fascinating Flora and Reconfigured expansions.
Dr. Foo
Just clarifying...if I pledge for the "Everything ROVE & Extra Wallet", will I be getting 2 or 3 wallets?
Isaiah Galaviz
So at the $20 pledge level in the US, I essentially just get free shipping? So I would simply add the amount for which pledge tier I'd like?
Jared
Super excited for this reprint, I just started playing ROVE from the PNP file and it is such. clever game. I backed this project will all its add ons!!
Michael Hand
Sorry I'm still new to this. As a $20 monthly member, if I want the expansions and the extra wallet I just need to select the $1 pledge and then add an additional $13 to my pledge?
Joseph Lee
Just to confirm, the expansion collection comes in a wallet? In other words, getting the empty wallet is just an extra wallet on top of the one that comes with the expansions?
Asher
That makes total sense! I’ve got my eye on some of the other game (button shy virgin over here!) so that would be an ideal chance to to expand my collection. Thanks Will!
Will Templeton
There's not a tier without the expansions, but you could go all in on the KS and swap out the Rove expansion collection for something else when it comes up in the club maybe.
Asher
This is great, thanks! If the Rove expansions will be in BGOTM in the future, are we able to get hold of Rove on its own/with the original expansions? (UK)
